Single photons are a fundamental element of most quantum optical technologies. The ideal
single-photon source is an on-demand, deterministic, single-photon source delivering light …

We provide a self-contained review of master equation approaches to modelling phonon
effects in optically driven self-assembled quantum dots. Coupling of the (quasi) two-level …

We observe antibunching in the photons emitted from a strongly coupled single quantum dot
and pillar microcavity in resonance. When the quantum dot was spectrally detuned from the …

Abstract 'Motional narrowing'refers to the striking phenomenon where the resonance line of
a system coupled to a reservoir becomes narrower on increasing the reservoir fluctuation. A …

Solid-state emitters are excellent candidates for develo** integrated sources of single
photons. Yet, phonons degrade the photon indistinguishability both through pure dephasing …

We report on the ultraviolet optical response of a color center in hexagonal boron nitride. We
demonstrate a map** between the vibronic spectrum of the color center and the phonon …

We present a quantum optics formalism to study the intensity power broadening of a
semiconductor quantum dot interacting with an acoustic-phonon bath and a high-Q …

We report systematic measurements of the dephasing of the excitonic ground-state transition
in a series of InGaAs∕ GaAs quantum dots having different quantum confinement …

Single-dot luminescence spectroscopy was used to study the emission linewidth of
individual silicon nanocrystals from low temperatures up to room temperature. The results …

The exciton-phonon coupling in high-quality cubic phase zinc telluride (ZnTe) nanorods
(NRs) is investigated by resonant micro-Raman spectroscopy near the direct bandgap of …
