Fluorescence lifetime experiments are a standard approach for measuring excited state dynamics and local environment effects. Here, we show that entangled photon pairs produced from a continuous-wave (CW) laser diode can replicate pulsed…
To operate quantum sensors at their quantum limit in real time, it is crucial to identify efficient data inference tools for rapid parameter estimation. In photodetection, the key challenge is the fast interpretation of click-patterns that…
Single quantum dots are solid-state emitters which mimic two-level atoms but with a highly enhanced spontaneous emission rate. A single quantum dot is the basis for a potentially excellent single photon source. One outstanding problem is…
We present a new physical model resolving a long-standing mystery of the power-law distributions of the blinking times in single colloidal quantum dot fluorescence. The model considers the non-radiative relaxation of the exciton through…
Optically active quantum dots, for instance self-assembled InGaAs quantum dots, are potentially excellent single photon sources. The fidelity of the single photons is much improved using resonant rather than non-resonant excitation. With…
The nanoscale interaction between single emitters and plasmonic structures is traditionally studied by relying on near-perfect, deterministic, nanoscale-control. This approach is ultra-low throughput thus rendering systematic studies…
We have computed the spectrum emitted spontaneously by a quantum dot coupled to an arbitrarily detuned single mode cavity, taking into account pure dephasing processes. We show that if the emitter is incoherent, the cavity can efficiently…
Characterising the input-output photon-number distribution of an unknown optical quantum channel is an important task for many applications in quantum information processing. Ideally, this would require deterministic photon-number sources…
Single photon sources are an integral part of various quantum technologies, and solid state quantum emitters at room temperature appear as a promising implementation. We couple the fluorescence of individual silicon vacancy centers in…
The behavior of a single molecule driven simultaneously by a laser and by an electric radio frequency field is investigated using a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian approach. Employing the renormalization group method for differential equations we…
Most optical quantum devices require deterministic single-photon emitters. Schemes so far demonstrated in the solid state imply an energy relaxation which tends to spoil the coherent nature of the time evolution, and with it the photon…
Manipulating the spontaneous emission of a fluorescent emitter can be achieved by placing the emitter in a nanostructured environment. A privileged spot is occupied by plasmonic structures that provide a strong confinement of the…
We investigate the photon emission in coupled quantum dots based on symmetry considerations. With the help of a new theorem we proved, we reveal the origin of the various emission patterns, which is the combinative symmetry in the time…
Self-assembled, epitaxially-grown InAs/GaAs quantum dots are promising semiconductor quantum emitters that can be integrated on a chip for a variety of photonic quantum information science applications. However, self-assembled growth…
We present a universal deep-learning method that reconstructs super-resolved images of quantum emitters from a single camera frame measurement. Trained on physics-based synthetic data spanning diverse point-spread functions, aberrations,…
Photothermal spectroscopy and microscopy provides a route to measure the spectral and spatial properties of individual nanoscopic absorbers, independent from scattering, extinction, and emission. The approach relies upon use of two light…
We report on the experimental demonstration of single photon state generation and characterization in an electron microscope. In this aim we have used low intensity relativistic (energy between 60kV and 100 keV) electrons beams focused in a…
Single-photon emitters in nanophotonic structures are a key building block for many photonic devices with quantum technology applications, like quantum sensors and quantum computers. In this paper, we determine the exact dynamics of a…
Deterministic generation of single photons is essential for many quantum information technologies. A bulk optical nonlinearity emitting a photon pair, where the measurement of one of the photons heralds the presence of the other, is…
Solid-state single-photon emitters provide a versatile platform for exploring quantum technologies such as optically connected quantum networks. A key challenge is to ensure optical coherence and spectral stability of the emitters. Here, we…
