Semiconductor Quantum Dot: A Quantum Light Source of Multicolor Photons with Tunable Statistics

D.V. Regelman, Udi Mizrahi, D. Gershoni +3 more

We investigate the intensity correlation properties of single photons emitted from an optically excited single semiconductor quantum dot. The second order temporal coherence function of the photons emitted at various wavelengths is measured as a function of the excitation power. We show experimentally and theoretically that a quantum dot is not only a source of nonclassically correlated monochromatic photons but is also a source of multicolor photons with tunable correlation properties. We found that the emitted photon statistics can be varied by the excitation rate from a sub-Poissonian one, where the photons are temporally antibunched, to super-Poissonian, where they are temporally bunched.

Semiconductor quantum dot-a quantum light source of multicolor photons with tunable statistics

D.V. Regelman, Udi Mizrahi, Winston Vaughan Schoenfeld +1 more

Summary form only given. We report on measurements of temporal correlations among multi-color photons emitted from cw optically excited single semiconductor quantum dots (SCQD). We show for the first time, that there is a tunable intensity correlation among photons emitted at the same and at different wavelengths due to the recombination of electron-hole (e-h) pairs from different collaborative quantum states. We show that the temporal correlations among the photons emitted by the SCQD change dramatically with the excitation power.

High yield and ultrafast sources of electrically triggered entangled-photon pairs based on strain-tunable quantum dots

Jiaxiang Zhang, Johannes S. Wildmann, Fei Ding +6 more

Triggered sources of entangled photon pairs are key components in most quantum communication protocols. For practical quantum applications, electrical triggering would allow the realization of compact and deterministic sources of entangled photons. Entangled-light-emitting-diodes based on semiconductor quantum dots are among the most promising sources that can potentially address this task. However, entangled-light-emitting-diodes are plagued by a source of randomness, which results in a very low probability of finding quantum dots with sufficiently small fine structure splitting for entangled-photon generation (∼10(-2)). Here we introduce strain-tunable entangled-light-emitting-diodes that exploit piezoelectric-induced strains to tune quantum dots for entangled-photon generation. We demonstrate that up to 30% of the quantum dots in strain-tunable entangled-light-emitting-diodes emit polarization-entangled photons. An entanglement fidelity as high as 0.83 is achieved with fast temporal post selection. Driven at high speed, that is 400 MHz, strain-tunable entangled-light-emitting-diodes emerge as promising devices for high data-rate quantum applications.
