研究目的
To demonstrate highly coherent emission from telecom C-band quantum dots and their application in quantum teleportation and quantum networks.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that InAs/InP quantum dots can emit highly coherent photons in the telecom C-band, enabling near-optimal interference and quantum teleportation with high fidelity. The results are promising for the development of quantum networks and long-distance quantum communication.
研究不足
The study is limited by the non-zero degree of second-order coherence of the quantum dots, which affects the interference visibility and teleportation fidelity. The excitation scheme, while practical, is not optimal for achieving the highest coherence times.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses droplet epitaxy InAs/InP quantum dots for generating highly coherent photons in the telecom C-band. The coherence times of single photons are measured using Fourier Transform Spectroscopy.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Metalorganic vapour-phase epitaxy grown droplet InAs QDs on an InP substrate are used. Photoluminescence spectra and intensity correlations are measured to identify emission transitions.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The setup includes a confocal microscope, grating spectrometer, InGaAs array, superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs), and a Michelson interferometer with optical delay line and fibre stretcher.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Non-resonant CW excitation at 785 nm and 1310 nm is used to excite the quantum dots. The light is collected and guided to either a spectrometer or a free-space transmission grating for spatial separation of emission lines.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The coherence time and fine-structure splitting are extracted from fits to the interference data. The degree of second-order coherence and interference visibility are calculated from correlation measurements.
