Electrically driven single-photon source at room temperature in diamond
Single-photon sources that provide non-classical light states on demand have a broad range of applications in quantum communication, quantum computing and metrology1. Singlephoton emission has been demonstrated using single atoms2, ions3, molecules4, diamond colour centres5,6 and semiconductor quantum dots7–11. Significant progress in highly efficient8,11 and entangled photons9 sources has rece...
متن کاملNonclassical photon statistics in single-molecule fluorescence at room temperature
The fluorescence of single terrylene molecules in a crystalline host is investigated at room temperature by scanning confocal optical microscopy. Photon arrival times are analyzed in terms of interphoton time distributions, second order correlation functions, and the variance of the photon number probability distribution. Antibunching at short times and bunching behavior for longer times is obs...
متن کاملElectrically driven single-photon source.
Electroluminescence from a single quantum dot within the intrinsic region of a p-i-n junction is shown to act as an electrically driven single-photon source. At low injection currents, the dot electroluminescence spectrum reveals a single sharp line due to exciton recombination, while another line due to the biexciton emerges at higher currents. The second-order correlation function of the diod...
متن کاملTowards electrically driven nanowire single-photon sources.
A vapor–liquid–solid (VLS) growth of microwhiskers was developed by Wagner et al. in the 1960s. The recent re-examination of this method by the groups of Lieber, Yang, Samuelson, Wang, and others has resulted in the flourishing research into nanowires (NWs). Nearly all the IV, II– VI, III–V, and IV–VI semiconductor NWs can be synthesized. Ternary compound semiconductors have also been demonstra...
متن کاملSingle-photon-level quantum memory at room temperature.
Room-temperature, easy-to-operate quantum memories are essential building blocks for future long distance quantum information networks operating on an intercontinental scale, because devices like quantum repeaters, based on quantum memories, will have to be deployed in potentially remote, inaccessible locations. Here we demonstrate controllable, broadband and efficient storage and retrieval of ...
