On-demand generation of background--free single photons from a solid-state source
Lucas Schweickert, Klaus D. Jöns, Katharina D. Zeuner +8
True on--demand high--repetition--rate single--photon sources are highly sought after for quantum information processing applications. However, any coherently driven two-level quan…
Strain-Tuning of the Optical Properties of Semiconductor Nanomaterials by Integration onto Piezoelectric Actuators
Javier Martin-Sanchez, Rinaldo Trotta, Antonio Mariscal +13
The tailoring of the physical properties of semiconductor nanomaterials by strain has been gaining increasing attention over the last years for a wide range of applications such as…
Predictive design and experimental realization of InAs/GaAs superlattices with tailored thermal conductivity
J. Carrete, B. Vermeersch, L. Thumfart +7
We demonstrate an ab-initio predictive approach to computing the thermal conductivity () of InAs/GaAs superlattices (SLs) of varying period, thickness, and composition. Our new…
On-demand semiconductor source of 780 nm single photons with controlled temporal wave packets
Lucas Béguin, Jan-Philipp Jahn, Janik Wolters +8
We report on a fast, bandwidth-tunable single-photon source based on an epitaxial GaAs quantum dot. Exploiting spontaneous spin-flip Raman transitions, single photons at nm…
Uniaxial stress flips the natural quantization axis of a quantum dot for integrated quantum photonics
Xueyong Yuan, Fritz Weihausen-Brinkmann, Javier Martín-Sánchez +10
The optical selection rules in epitaxial quantum dots are strongly influenced by the orientation of their natural quantization axis, which is usually parallel to the growth directi…
High-yield fabrication of entangled photon emitters for hybrid quantum networking using high-temperature droplet epitaxy
Francesco Basso Basset, Sergio Bietti, Marcus Reindl +7
Several semiconductor quantum dot techniques have been investigated for the generation of entangled photon pairs. Among the other techniques, droplet epitaxy enables the control of…
