Coherent Quantum Interconnection between On-Demand Quantum Dot Single Photons and a Resonant Atomic Quantum Memory

Guo-Dong Cui, Lucas Schweickert, Klaus D. Jöns +11

Long-range quantum communication requires the development of in-out light-matter interfaces to achieve a quantum advantage in entanglement distribution. Ideally, these quantum inte…

The crux of using the cascaded emission of a 3-level quantum ladder system to generate indistinguishable photons

Eva Schöll, Lucas Schweickert, Lukas Hanschke +13

We investigate the degree of indistinguishability of cascaded photons emitted from a 3-level quantum ladder system; in our case the biexciton-exciton cascade of semiconductor quant…
