摘要:

一个光源,产生单光子脉冲的需求,在线性光学量子计算中有潜在的应用,提供了严格的要求,所产生的光子的不可逆性和收集效率得到满足。我们表明,这些是相互矛盾的要求,非谐波发射器,通过水库不相干泵浦。作为相干泵浦单光子源的模型,我们考虑了微腔中单个带电量子点的腔辅助自旋翻转拉曼跃迁。我们证明,使用这样的源,任意高的收集效率和不可吸收性的产生的光子可以同时获得增加腔耦合。我们分析了线性光学量子门中的单光子脉冲的可重复性所引起的误差的作用,通过将门保真度与光子互相关测量中的双光子干涉下降的强度相关联。我们发现,执行控制相位操作的错误< 1% requires nano-cavities with Purcell factors F_P >= 40在没有失相,而不需要强耦合限制。

英文摘要:

An optical source that produces single photon pulses on demand has potential applications in linear optics quantum computation, provided that stringent requirements on indistinguishability and collection efficiency of the generated photons are met. We show that these are conflicting requirements for anharmonic emitters that are incoherently pumped via reservoirs. As a model for a coherently pumped single photon source, we consider cavity-assisted spin-flip Raman transitions in a single charged quantum dot embedded in a microcavity. We demonstrate that using such a source, arbitrarily high collection efficiency and indistinguishability of the generated photons can be obtained simultaneously with increased cavity coupling. We analyze the role of errors that arise from distinguishability of the single photon pulses in linear optics quantum gates by relating the gate fidelity to the strength of the two-photon interference dip in photon cross-correlation measurements. We find that performing controlled phase operations with error < 1% requires nano-cavities with Purcell factors F_P >= 40 in the absence of dephasing, without necessitating the strong coupling limit.
