Three-photon excitation of quantum two-level systems
Viviana Villafañe, Bianca Scaparra, Manuel Rieger +8
We demonstrate that semiconductor quantum dots can be excited efficiently in a resonant three-photon process, whilst resonant two-photon excitation is highly suppressed. Time-depen…
Organic molecule fluorescence as an experimental test-bed for quantum jumps in thermodynamics
Cormac Browne, Tristan Farrow, Oscar C. O. Dahlsten +1
We demonstrate with an experiment how molecules are a natural test-bed for probing fundamental quantum thermodynamics. Single-molecule spectroscopy has undergone transformative cha…
Strongly coupled single quantum dot in a photonic crystal waveguide cavity
F. S. F. Brossard, X. L. Xu, D. A. Williams +4
Cavities embedded in photonic crystal waveguides offer a promising route towards large scale integration of coupled resonators for quantum electrodynamics applications. In this let…
Direct optical excitation of a fullerene-incarcerated metal ion
Mark A G Jones, Kyriakos Porfyrakis, G Andrew D Briggs +2
The endohedral fullerene Er3N@C80 shows characteristic 1.5 micron photoluminescence at cryogenic temperatures associated with radiative relaxation from the crystal-field split Er3+…
