Nonlinear down-conversion in a single quantum dot
B. Jonas, D. Heinze, E. Schöll +8
Photonic quantum technologies, with applications in quantum communication, sensing as well as quantum simulation and computing, are on the verge of becoming commercially availa…
Ultrafast electric control of cavity mediated single-photon and photon-pair generation with semiconductor quantum dots
David Bauch, Dirk Heinze, Jens Förstner +2
Employing the ultrafast control of electronic states of a semiconductor quantum dot in a cavity, we introduce a novel approach to achieve on-demand emission of single photons with…
Pulse shaping for on-demand emission of single Raman photons from a quantum-dot biexciton
Tom Praschan, Dirk Heinze, Dominik Breddermann +3
Semiconductor quantum dots embedded in optical cavities are promising on-demand sources of single photons. Here, we theoretically study single photon emission from an optically dri…
Microscopic theory of cavity-enhanced single-photon emission from optical two-photon Raman processes
Dominik Breddermann, Tom Praschan, Dirk Heinze +2
We consider cavity-enhanced single-photon generation from stimulated two-photon Raman processes in three-level systems. We compare four fundamental system configurations, one -,…
Polarization-entangled twin photons from two-photon quantum-dot emission
Dirk Heinze, Artur Zrenner, Stefan Schumacher
Semiconductor quantum dots are promising sources for polarization-entangled photons. As an alternative to the usual cascaded biexciton-exciton emission, direct two-photon emission…
All-optical tailoring of single-photon spectra in a quantum-dot microcavity system
Dominik Breddermann, Dirk Heinze, Rolf Binder +2
Semiconductor quantum-dot cavity systems are promising sources for solid-state based on-demand generation of single photons for quantum communication. Commonly, the spectral charac…
A quantum dot single-photon source with on-the-fly all-optical polarization control and timed emission
Dirk Heinze, Artur Zrenner, Stefan Schumacher
Sources of single photons are key elements in the study of basic quantum optical concepts and applications in quantum information science. Among the different sources available, se…
