摘要:

强度压缩,即,低于散粒噪声极限的光子数波动是量子光学的基本方面,并且在量子精密测量中具有广泛的应用。早在1979年,人们就预言在二能级量子系统的共振荧光中可以观察到强度压缩。然而,其在固态下的实验观察受到产生、收集和检测共振荧光效率低下的阻碍。本文报道了基于量子点-微柱系统的单模光纤耦合共振荧光单光子源中的强度压缩。我们检测到的脉冲单光子流与22.6%的系统效率,这表明亚散粒噪声强度起伏的强度压缩为0.59分贝。我们估计在第一透镜处的3.29 dB的校正压缩。观测到的强度压缩提供了共振荧光基本图像的最后一部分;它可以用作光辐射的新标准,并用于具有不可区分的单光子的可扩展量子精密测量。

英文摘要:

Intensity squeezing, i.e., photon number fluctuations below the shot noise limit, is a fundamental aspect of quantum optics and has wide applications in quantum metrology. It was predicted in 1979 that the intensity squeezing could be observed in resonance fluorescence from a two-level quantum system. Yet, its experimental observation in solid states was hindered by inefficiencies in generating, collecting and detecting resonance fluorescence. Here, we report the intensity squeezing in a single-mode fibre-coupled resonance fluorescence single-photon source based on a quantum dot-micropillar system. We detect pulsed single-photon streams with 22.6% system efficiency, which show subshot-noise intensity fluctuation with an intensity squeezing of 0.59 dB. We estimate a corrected squeezing of 3.29 dB at the first lens. The observed intensity squeezing provides the last piece of the fundamental picture of resonance fluorescence; which can be used as a new standard for optical radiation and in scalable quantum metrology with indistinguishable single photons.
