Deterministic single photon source enabled by coherent superposition of Mie-scattering moments in a NV- center coupled dipolar antenna

Faraz A. Inam, Rajesh V. Nair

Generation of an ultra-bright, deterministic, solid-state single photon source with high photon collection rate is an imperative requirement for quantum technologies. In this direc…

Kerker condition for enhancing emission rate and directivity of single emitter coupled to dielectric metasurfaces

Megha Khokhar, Faraz A Inam, Rajesh V Nair

Metasurfaces have the ability to control classical and non-classical states of light to achieve controlled emission even at the level of single emitter. Here, we unveil the Kerker…
