On-chip single-photon sources are key components for integrated photonic quantum technologies. Semiconductor quantum dots can exhibit near-ideal single-photon emission but this can be significantly degraded in on-chip geometries owing to…
Phonon damping is the main source of pure dephasing in the solid state, limiting many fundamental quantum effects to low temperature observations. Here we show how excitons in semiconductors can be totally decoupled from the phonon bath,…
Light-matter coupling in excitonic materials has been the subject of intense investigation due to emergence of new excitonic materials. Two-dimensional layered hybrid organic/inorganic perovskites (2D HOIPs) support strongly bound excitons…
In two-dimensional crystals that lack symmetry under reflections on the horizontal plane of the lattice (non-$\sigma_{\rm h}$-symmetric), electrons can couple to flexural modes (ZA phonons) at first order. We show that in materials of this…
We propose and characterize a two-photon emitter in a highly polarised, monochromatic and directional beam, realized by means of a quantum dot embedded in a linearly polarized cavity. In our scheme, the cavity frequency is tuned to half the…
Optical polaritons appear when a material excitation strongly couples to the optical mode. Such strong coupling between molecular transitions and optical cavities results in far-reaching opportunities in modifying fundamental properties of…
Laser control of solids was so far mainly discussed in the context of strong classical nonlinear light-matter coupling in a pump-probe framework. Here we propose a quantum-electrodynamical setting to address the coupling of a…
