单光子源是实现量子密匙分配、线性光学量子计算的基本单元。作者回顾了单光子源在量子信息科学发展中的作用,讨论了光子的统计特性,分析了具有类似原子二能级结构的半导体量子点作为单光子发射源的特点,介绍了微腔与二能级系统的耦合以及微腔量子电动力学基本原理。在弱耦合区,Purcell效应导致微腔中量子点激子复合寿命降低,因此可用微腔来改善量子点单光子发射效率。文章总结了近年来在半导体微腔增强量子点单光子发射领域的进展,探讨了分布式布拉格反射微腔、柱状微腔和光子晶体微腔等结构对改善半导体量子点单光子发射和收集效率、光子极化以及光子全同性等方面的作用,并对未来半导体量子点单光子源的发展进行了展望。 相似文献

利用共生纠缠度研究了单模腔场内两个耦合量子点中激子的纠缠动力学行为.结果表明:无论腔场初始制备于奇相干态还是偶相干态,两个量子点间直接耦合作用均能减弱激子的纠缠度.在腔场初始为奇相干态时,激子的纠缠度随场模强度的增加而减小;偶相干态时,激子的纠缠度呈现一个转折变化.此外,也研究了单模腔场内平均光子数与激子准最大相干纠缠态的关联. 相似文献

通过构造一个由相互垂直的两腔和一个二能级原子组成的光学腔-原子系统,研究可控的量子干涉引起的非传统光子传输现象.该系统中,两个正交腔之间通过光纤直接耦合和通过放在两腔交叉处的二能级原子间接耦合.该三模系统支持两个相互垂直的传播方向,即两探测场相互垂直.在考虑原子弛豫速率的情况下,该闭环系统中的光场、腔模与原子跃迁间相互作用所产生的可控量子干涉能导致一些新的对称或非对称的光子输运行为,如相干完美合成、相干完美透明.此外,输运的群速度也可调节,即产生快慢光效应.这些过程能够通过调节探测场间相对相位、两腔之间的隧穿耦合强度进行动态调控.该机制有望用于开发高效的量子信息处理和全光网络的功能元器件(如光开关和路由器等). 相似文献

磁性隧道结材料中自旋相关的量子阱态所导致的共振隧穿现象具有很重要的研究和应用价值,文章介绍了最近在Fe(001)/MgO/Fe/MgO/Fe双势垒磁性隧道结中存在的量子阱共振隧穿效应的理论研究工作,通过量子阱态的第一性原理的计算以及结合对中间Fe薄膜孤岛结构所导致Coulomb阻塞效应的分析,证实了最近Nozaki等人(Nozaki T et al.Phys.Rev.Lett.,2006,96:027208)实验中得到的振荡效应确实来源于中间Fe层多数自旋电子在Г点处形成的△1对称性的量子阱态.Coulomb阻塞效应的存在正是导致实验中低温下量子阱共振隧穿效应不够明显的主要原因. 相似文献

由于量子限制效应,自组装半导体单量子点具有类似于原子的分立能级,可实现高不可分辨、高亮度和高纯度的单光子发射,其多种激子态能够产生不同偏振模式的光子。而光学微纳结构是调控量子点发光性质的有效手段,当单个量子点与光学微腔发生弱耦合时,Purcell效应将大大提高量子点作为单光子源或纠缠光子对源的性能。同时,量子点与光学微腔的强耦合系统可以作为量子光学网络中的量子节点,以及用于研究单光子水平的光学非线性效应。利用量子点与光学波导的耦合可实现固态量子比特和飞行光子比特的相干转换,以及高效的信息处理与传输,由此构建可靠的片上光学网络。此外,单量子点还具有可操控的自旋态,可作为量子比特的载体。考虑到量子点器件的制备过程易与成熟的半导体技术相结合,基于量子点的器件设计具有良好的可扩展性和集成化潜力。 相似文献

We have studied a double-layer self-assembled quantum dot (QD) structures consisting of non-magnetic CdSe and magnetic CdMnSe. Transmission electron microscopy image shows that QDs are formed within the CdSe and CdMnSe layers, and they are vertically correlated in the system. The strong interband ground state transition was observed in magneto-photoluminescence (PL) experiments. In contrast to a typical behavior for many low-dimensional systems involving diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMSs), where PL signal dramatically increases when an external magnetic field is applied, we have observed a significant decrease of the PL intensity as a function of magnetic field in the double-layer structures where the alternating QD layers contain the DMS and non-DMS QDs. We attribute such effect to carrier transfer from non-magnetic CdSe dots to magnetic CdMnSe dots due to the large Zeeman shift of the band edges of DMS QDs in magnetic field. Since the band alignment of QD structure strongly depends on the spin states of system, we performed polarization-selective PL measurement to identify spin-dependent carrier tunneling in this coupled system. 相似文献

Effects of a longitudinal magnetic field on optical spin injection and detection in InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) structures are investigated by optical orientation spectroscopy. An increase in the optical and spin polarization of the QDs is observed with increasing magnetic field in the range 0-2?T, and is attributed to suppression of exciton spin depolarization within the QDs that is promoted by the hyperfine interaction and anisotropic electron-hole exchange interaction. This leads to a corresponding enhancement in spin detection efficiency of the QDs by a factor of up to 2.5. At higher magnetic fields, when these spin depolarization processes are quenched, the electron spin polarization in anisotropic QD structures (such as double QDs that are preferably aligned along a specific crystallographic axis) still exhibits a rather strong field dependence under non-resonant excitation. In contrast, such a field dependence is practically absent in more 'isotropic' QD structures (e.g.?single QDs). We attribute the observed effect to stronger electron spin relaxation in the spin injectors (i.e.?wetting layer and GaAs barriers) of the lower-symmetry QD structures, which also explains the lower spin injection efficiency observed in these structures. 相似文献

We investigate mesoscopic transport through a system that consists of a central quantum dot (QD) and two single-wall
carbon nanotube (SWCN) leads in the presence of a rotating
magnetic field. The spin-flip effect is induced by the rotating
magnetic field, and the tunnelling current is sensitively related
to the spin-flip effect. We present the calculations of charge
and spin current components to show the intimate relations to the
SWCN leads. Zeeman effect is important when the applied magnetic
field is strong enough. The current characteristics are quite
different when the source-drain bias is zero (eV=0) and nonzero
(eV≠0). The asymmetric peak and valley of spin current versus
gate voltage exhibit Fano resonance. Multi-resonant peaks of spin
current versus photon energy ħω reflect the structure
of CN quantum wires, as well as the resonant photon absorption and
emission effect. The matching-mismatching of channels in the CN
leads and QD results in novel spin current structure by tuning the
frequency. 相似文献

To generate entangled photon pairs via quantum dots (QDs), the exciton fine-structure splitting (FSS) must be comparable to the exciton homogeneous linewidth. Yet in the (In,Ga)As/GaAs QD, the intrinsic FSS is about a few tens microeV. To achieve photon entanglement, it is necessary to cherry-pick a sample with extremely small FSS from a large number of samples or to apply a strong in-plane magnetic field. Using theoretical modeling of the fundamental causes of FSS in QDs, we predict that the intrinsic FSS of InAs/InP QDs is an order of magnitude smaller than that of InAs/GaAs dots, and, better yet, their excitonic gap matches the 1.55 microm fiber optic wavelength and, therefore, offers efficient on-demand entangled photon emitters for long distance quantum communication. 相似文献

Efficient generation of polarized single photons or entangled photon pairs is crucial for the implementation of quantum key distribution (QKD) systems. Self organized semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are capable of emitting on demand one polarized photon or an entangled photon pair upon current injection. Highly efficient single‐photon sources consist of a pin structure inserted into a microcavity where single electrons and holes are funneled into an InAs QD via a submicron AlOx aperture, leading to emission of single polarized photons with record purity of the spectrum and non‐classicality of the photons. A new QD site‐control technique is based on using the surface strain field of an AlOx current aperture below the QD. GaN/AlN QD based devices are promising to operate at room temperature and reveal a fine‐structure splitting (FSS) depending inversely on the QD size. Large GaN/AlN QDs show disappearance of the FSS. Theory also suggests QDs grown on (111)‐oriented GaAs substrates as source of entangled photon pairs. 相似文献

In t.his contribution, we briefly recall the basic concepts of quantum optics and properties of semicon- ductor quantum clot. (QD) which a.re necessary to the nnderstanding of the physics of single-photon generation with single QDs. Firstly, we address the theory of quantmn emitter-cavity system, the fluorescence and optical properties of semiconductor QDs, and the photon statistics as well as opti- cal properties of the QDs. We then review the localizatioll of single semiconductor QDs in quantum confined optical microcavity systems to achieve their overall optical properties and perfornances in terms of strong coupling regime, elfieiency, directionality, and polarization control. Furthermore, we will discuss the recenl, progress on the fabrication of single photon sources, and various a.pproaehes for embedding single QDs into mieroca,vities or photonic crystal nanoeavities and show how to ex- tend the wavelength range. We focus in part;icular on new generations of electrically driven QD single photon source leading to high repetition rates, efficiencies at elevated temperature operation. Besides strong eoupling regime, and high collection new development;s of room temperature sin- gle photon emission in the strong coupling regime are reviewed. The generation of indistinguishable photons and remaining challenges for pract ical single-photon sources are also discussed. 相似文献

We have investigated the mesoscopic transport through the system
with a quantum dot (QD) side-coupled to a toroidal carbon nanotube
(TCN) in the presence of spin-flip effect. The coupled QD
contributes to the mesoscopic transport significantly through
adjusting the gate voltage and Zeeman field applied to the QD.
The compound TCN-QD microstructure is related to the separate
subsystems, the applied external magnetic fields, as well as the
combination of subsystems. The spin current component Izs is
independent on time, while the spin current components Ixs and
Iys evolve with time sinusoidally. The rotating magnetic field
induces novel levels due to the spin splitting and photon
absorption procedures. The suppression and enhancement of resonant
peaks, and semiconductor-metal phase transition are observed by
studying the differential conductance through tuning the
source-drain bias and photon energy. The magnetic flux induces
Aharonov-Bohm oscillation, and it controls the tunnelling behavior
due to adjusting the flux. The Fano type of multi-resonant
behaviors are displayed in the conductance structures by
adjusting the gate voltage Vg and the Zeeman field
applied to the QD. 相似文献

An overview on photon echo spectroscopy under resonant excitation of the exciton complexes in semiconductor nanostructures is presented. The use of four-wave-mixing technique with the pulsed excitation and heterodyne detection allowed us to measure the coherent response of the system with the picosecond time resolution. It is shown that, for resonant selective pulsed excitation of the localized exciton complexes, the coherent signal is represented by the photon echoes due to the inhomogeneous broadening of the optical transitions. In case of resonant excitation of the trions or donor-bound excitons, the Zeeman splitting of the resident electron ground state levels under the applied transverse magnetic field results in quantum beats of photon echo amplitude at the Larmor precession frequency. Application of magnetic field makes it possible to transfer coherently the optical excitation into the spin ensemble of the resident electrons and to observe a long-lived photon echo signal. The described technique can be used as a high-resolution spectroscopy of the energy splittings in the ground state of the system. Next, we consider the Rabi oscillations and their damping under excitation with intensive optical pulses for the excitons complexes with a different degree of localization. It is shown that damping of the echo signal with increase of the excitation pulse intensity is strongly manifested for excitons, while on trions and donor-bound excitons this effect is substantially weaker. 相似文献
