Artificial coherent states of light by multi-photon interference in a single-photon stream
P. Steindl, H. Snijders, G. Westra +9
Coherent optical states consist of a quantum superposition of different photon number (Fock) states, but because they do not form an orthogonal basis, no photon number states can b…
Extended polarized semiclassical model for quantum-dot cavity QED and its application to single-photon sources
H. J. Snijders, D. N. L. Kok, M. F. van de Stolpe +7
We present a simple extension of the semi-classical model for a two-level system in a cavity, in order to incorporate multiple polarized transitions, such as those appearing in neu…
Electro-optic polarization tuning of microcavities with a single quantum dot
J. A. Frey, H. J. Snijders, J. Norman +4
We present an oxide aperture microcavity with embedded quantum dots that utilizes a three contact design to independently tune the quantum dot wavelength and birefringence of the c…
Single photons and unconventional photon blockade in quantum dot cavity-QED
H. J. Snijders, J. A. Frey, J. Norman +7
We observe the unconventional photon blockade effect in quantum dot cavity QED, which, in contrast to conventional photon blockade, operates in the weak coupling regime. A single q…
