Coherence protection in coupled quantum systems

Helen Cammack, Peter Kirton, Paul Eastham +2

The interaction of a quantum system with its environment causes decoherence, setting a fundamental limit on the suitability of a system for quantum information processing. However,…

Efficient deterministic giant photon phase shift from a single charged quantum dot

P. Androvitsaneas, A. B. Young, J. M. Lennon +8

Solid-state quantum emitters have long been recognised as the ideal platform to realize integrated quantum photonic technologies. We use a self-assembled negatively charged QD in a…

Uncovering dispersion properties in semiconductor waveguides to study photon-pair generation

K. Laiho, B. Pressl, A. Schlager +5

We investigate the dispersion properties of ridge Bragg-reflection waveguides to deduce their phasematching characteristics. These are crucial for exploiting them as sources of par…

Free-space quantum signatures using heterodyne detection

Callum Croal, Christian Peuntinger, Bettina Heim +6

Digital signatures guarantee the authorship of electronic communications. Currently used "classical" signature schemes rely on unproven computational assumptions for security, whil…

Designing spin channel geometries for entanglement distribution

E. K. Levi, P. G. Kirton, B. W. Lovett

We investigate different geometries of spin-1/2 nitrogen impurity channels for distributing entanglement between pairs of remote nitrogen vacancy centers (NVs) in diamond. To go be…

Scalable boson sampling with a single-photon device

Yu He, Zu-En Su, He-Liang Huang +13

Boson sampling is a problem intractable for classical computers, but can be naturally solved on a specialized photonic quantum simulator which requires less resources than building…

Near Transform-Limited Single Photons from an Efficient Solid-State Quantum Emitter

Hui Wang, Z. -C. Duan, Y. -H. Li +12

By pulsed s-shell resonant excitation of a single quantum dot-micropillar system, we generate long streams of a thousand of near transform-limited single photons with high mutual i…

Photon-Statistics Excitation Spectroscopy of a Single Two Level System

M. Strauß, M. Placke, S. Kreinberg +5

We investigate the influence of the photon statistics on the excitation dynamics of a single two level system. A single semiconductor quantum dot represents the two level system an…

On-Demand Single Photons with High Extraction Efficiency and Near-Unity Indistinguishability from a Resonantly Driven Quantum Dot in a Micropillar

Xing Ding, Yu He, Z. -C. Duan +9

Scalable photonic quantum technologies require on-demand single-photon sources with simultaneously high levels of purity, indistinguishability, and efficiency. These key features,…
