Investigating the fast spectral diffusion of a quantum emitter in hBN using resonant excitation and photon correlations

Clarisse Fournier, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi +4 more

Single-photon emitters in the solid state are subject to spectral broadening processes known as spectral diffusion and pure dephasing. Here, the authors show that a combination of quantum optics techniques, namely coherent laser drive and time-resolved photon correlations, can bring both processes to light in a single experimental protocol. This allows an extensive characterization of a large variety of solid-state quantum emitters. Their method is experimentally applied to a quantum emitter in the 2D material hexagonal boron nitride, further establishing this system as an appealing quantum photonics platform.

Coherence in cooperative photon emission from indistinguishable quantum emitters

Zhe Xian Koong, Moritz Cygorek, Eleanor Scerri +5 more

Photon-mediated interactions between atoms can arise via coupling to a common electromagnetic mode or by quantum interference. Here, we probe the role of coherence in cooperative emission arising from two distant but indistinguishable solid-state emitters because of path erasure. The primary signature of cooperative emission, the emergence of "bunching" at zero delay in an intensity correlation experiment, is used to characterize the indistinguishability of the emitters, their dephasing, and the degree of correlation in the joint system that can be coherently controlled. In a stark departure from a pair of uncorrelated emitters, in Hong-Ou-Mandel-type interference measurements, we observe photon statistics from a pair of indistinguishable emitters resembling that of a weak coherent state from an attenuated laser. Our experiments establish techniques to control and characterize cooperative behavior between matter qubits using the full quantum optics toolbox, a key step toward realizing large-scale quantum photonic networks.
