Bright Telecom Spin-Photon Interface in Silicon Photonics

Carolina Crosta, Amirehsan Alizadehherfati, Purbita Purkayastha +5

Silicon is an attractive host for scalable quantum photonics, but the absence of bright telecom-band emitters with optically addressable spin states has limited its use for spin-ph…
