Coherent generation of time-bin entangled photon pairs using the biexciton cascade and cavity-assisted piecewise adiabatic passage
We present a scheme to realize a deterministic solid-state source of time-bin entangled photon pairs using cavity-assisted piecewise adiabatic passage in a single quantum dot. The quantum dot is embedded inside a semiconductor microcavity, and the interaction of a coherent superposition of two temporally separated input pulses and the cavity mode leads to a piecewise adiabatic passage, which pr...

متن کاملCavity-assisted fast generation of entangled photon pairs through the biexciton-exciton cascade
We present a scheme for the fast cavity-assisted generation of entangled photon pairs from a single quantum dot coupled to a planar photonic crystal that support two orthogonally polarized cavity modes. We discuss “within generation” and “across generation” of entangled photons when both the biexciton to exciton, and the exciton to ground-state transitions, are coupled through cavity modes. In ...
متن کاملTime-bin entanglement with a single quantum dot
This thesis presents the development of an on-demand source of time-bin entangled photons, created from the biexciton-exciton radiative cascade in a single quantum dot. To achieve a source of time-bin entangled photons, we determined that the quantum dot must have two key properties: a dephasing time that is longer than the lifetime and high count rates, which are necessary to perform the corre...
متن کامل1 9 A ug 2 00 8 Nonclassical Correlation of Polarization Entangled Photons in a Biexciton - Exciton Cascade
We develop a theoretical model to study the Intensity-Intensity correlation of polarization entangled photons emitted in a biexciton-exciton cascade. We calculate the degree of correlation and show how polarization correlation are affected by the presence of dephasing and energy level splitting of the excitonic states. Our theoretical calculations are in agreement with the recent observation of...
