This paper addresses sub-Poissonian electronic and photonic noise generation in semiconductor junctions. Recent theoretical and technical advances in the understanding and generation of quantum noise-suppressed (‘quiet’) light have emphasised the links between photonic and electronic shot noise. Shot-noise suppression and single electron–photon control through the operation of the collective and single-electron Coulomb blockade mechanisms are described.
