A charged quantum dot micropillar system for deterministic light matter interactions
Petros Androvitsaneas, Andrew B. Young, Chritian Schneider +8
Quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor nanostructures in which a three dimensional potential trap produces an electronic quantum confinement, thus mimicking the behaviour of single a…
Photocell Optimisation Using Dark State Protection
Amir Fruchtman, Rafael Gómez-Bombarelli, Brendon W. Lovett +1
Conventional photocells suffer a fundamental efficiency threshold imposed by the principle of detailed balance, reflecting the fact that good absorbers must necessarily also be fas…
Quantum dot micropillar cavities with quality factors exceeding 250,000
Christian Schneider, Peter Gold, Stephan Reitzenstein +2
We report on the spectroscopic investigation of quantum dot - micropillar cavities with unprecedented quality factors. We observe a pronounced dependency of the quality factor on t…
Ancilla-driven quantum computation for qudits and continuous variables
Timothy Proctor, Melissa Giulian, Natalia Korolkova +2
Although qubits are the leading candidate for the basic elements in a quantum computer, there are also a range of reasons to consider using higher dimensional qudits or quantum con…
Coherent exciton dynamics in a dissipative environment maintained by an off-resonant vibrational mode
E. K. Levi, E. K. Irish, B. W. Lovett
The interplay between an open quantum system and its environment can lead to both coherent and incoherent behaviour. We explore the extent to which strong coupling to a single boso…
Cavity-enhanced simultaneous dressing of quantum dot exciton and biexciton states
Fabian Hargart, Markus Müller, Kaushik Roy-Choudhury +6
We demonstrate the simultaneous dressing of both vacuum-to-exciton and exciton-to-biexciton transitions of a single semiconductor quantum dot in a high-Q micropillar cavity, using…
Bath induced coherence and the secular approximation
P. R. Eastham, P. Kirton, H. M. Cammack +2
Finding efficient descriptions of how an environment affects a collection of discrete quantum systems would lead to new insights into many areas of modern physics. Markovian, or ti…
Modally Resolved Fabry-Perot Experiment with Semiconductor Waveguides
B. Pressl, T. Günthner, K. Laiho +5
Based on the interaction between different spatial modes, semiconductor Bragg-reflection waveguides provide a highly functional platform for non-linear optics. Therefore, the contr…
Entangling the whole by beam splitting a part
Callum Croal, Christian Peuntinger, Vanessa Chille +4
A beam splitter is a basic linear optical element appearing in many optics experiments and is frequently used as a continuous-variable entangler transforming a pair of input modes…
Quantum vacuum emission from a refractive index front
Maxime Jacquet, Friedrich Koenig
A moving boundary separating two otherwise homogeneous regions of a dielectric is known to emit radiation from the quantum vacuum. An analytical framework based on the Hopfield mod…
Quantum-enhanced capture of photons using optical ratchet states
K. D. B. Higgins, B. W. Lovett, E. M. Gauger
Natural and artificial light harvesting systems often operate in a regime where the flux of photons is relatively low. Besides absorbing as many photons as possible it is therefore…
Quantum tight-binding chains with dissipative coupling
D. Mogilevtsev, G. Ya. Slepyan, E. Garusov +2
We present a one-dimensional tight-binding chain of two-level systems coupled only through common dissipative Markovian reservoirs. This quantum chain can demonstrate anomalous the…
Macroscopic quantum resonators (MAQRO): 2015 Update
Rainer Kaltenbaek, Markus Arndt, Markus Aspelmeyer +49
Do the laws of quantum physics still hold for macroscopic objects - this is at the heart of Schrödinger's cat paradox - or do gravitation or yet unknown effects set a limit for mas…
Two-photon interference from a quantum dot--microcavity: Persistent pure-dephasing and suppression of time-jitter
Sebastian Unsleber, Dara P. S. McCutcheon, Michael Dambach +6
We demonstrate the emission of highly indistinguishable photons from a quasi-resonantly pumped coupled quantum dot--microcavity system operating in the regime of cavity quantum ele…
