摘要:

我们在AlGaAs/GaAs二维电子气中制作了一个依赖于窄电子通道光电导增益的单光子探测器。假设电子通道是一维的,光诱导电导在量子电导2 e $^{2}$ /h的倍数处具有平台。叠加在这些宽的电导平台上的是与产生单个光载流子的单光子吸收事件相关联的许多尖锐的、小的电导台阶。这种类型的光电导探测器可以测量单个光子,同时安全地存储和保护其光载流子的自旋自由度。该函数对于允许量子信息的远距离隐形传态的量子中继器是有价值的。

英文摘要:

We have made a single-photon detector that relies on photoconductive gain in a narrow electron channel in an AlGaAs/GaAs 2-dimensional electron gas. Given that the electron channel is 1-dimensional, the photo-induced conductance has plateaus at multiples of the quantum conductance 2e$^{2}$/h. Super-imposed on these broad conductance plateaus are many sharp, small, conductance steps associated with single-photon absorption events that produce individual photo-carriers. This type of photoconductive detector could measure a single photon, while safely storing and protecting the spin degree of freedom of its photo-carrier. This function is valuable for a quantum repeater that would allow very long distance teleportation of quantum information.
