The product Jahn-Teller (pJT) effect may occur for such coupledelectron-phonon systems in solids where single electrons occupy doubledegenerate orbitals. We propose that the excited state of the neutral $X$Vsplit-vacancy complex in diamond, where $X$ and V labels a group-IV impurityatom of $X$=Si, Ge, Sn, Pb and the vacancy, respectively, is such a system with$e_g$ and $e_u$ double degenerate orbitals and $E_g$ quasi-localized phonons.We develop and apply \emph{ab initio} theory to quantify the strength ofelectron-phonon coupling for neutral $X$V complexes in diamond, and find asignificant impact on the corresponding optical properties of these centers.Our results show good agreement with recent experimental data on theprospective SiV($0$) quantum bit, and reveals the complex nature of the excitedstates of neutral $X$V color centers in diamond.
