摘要:

来自半导体量子点的单光子是线性光学量子计算的有前途的资源,或者当耦合到自旋态时,量子中继器。为了实现这样的方案,光子必须表现出高度的不可逆性。然而,固态环境对该要求提出了固有的障碍,因为本征半导体波动可以破坏光子不可逆性。在这里,我们使用共振荧光产生难以区分的光子从一个单一的量子点在充满了许多电荷波动陷阱的环境。在长时间尺度($>50$ $μ$ s)上,由于显著的光谱波动引起的发射闪烁降低计数率。然而,由于共振荧光的特异性,实现了高可见度的双光子干涉。

英文摘要:

Single photons from semiconductor quantum dots are promising resources for linear optical quantum computing, or, when coupled to spin states, quantum repeaters. To realize such schemes, the photons must exhibit a high degree of indistinguishability. However, the solid-state environment presents inherent obstacles for this requirement as intrinsic semiconductor fluctuations can destroy the photon indistinguishability. Here we use resonance fluorescence to generate indistinguishable photons from a single quantum dot in an environment filled with many charge-fluctuating traps. Over long time-scales ($>50$ $μ$s), flickering of the emission due to significant spectral fluctuations reduce the count rates. Nevertheless, due to the specificity of resonance fluorescence, high-visibility two-photon interference is achieved.
