Selective Biexciton Generation Under Energy-Time Entangled Quantum Light in Quantum Dots

Kaiyue Peng, Chieh Tsao, Hendrik Utzat +1

Energy-time entangled photons provide new opportunities for controlling multiphoton absorption beyond classical limits. Here, we investigate biexciton generation in nanocrystal qua…

Photoluminescence Line Shapes of Nanocrystals: Contributions from First- and Second-Order Vibronic Couplings

Kaiyue Peng, Bokang Hou, Kailai Lin +3

We present a microscopic, parameter-free approach for computing the photoluminescence spectra of a single semiconductor nanocrystal. The method derives exciton-phonon coupling dire…

Multi-Dimensional Photon-Correlations Reveal Triexciton Features in Single Perovskite Quantum Dots

Alex Hinkle, Chieh Tsao, Adam Duell +1

Lead-halide perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) are established quantum emitters with potential for entangled photon-pair generation via multiexciton cascades. However, the energetics a…
