The generation, manipulation, storage, and detection of single photons play a central role in
emerging photonic quantum information technology. Individual photons serve as flying …

Photonic nanostructures provide a means of tailoring the interaction between light and
matter and the past decade has witnessed tremendous experimental and theoretical …

Realization of a quantum interface between stationary and flying qubits is a requirement for
long-distance quantum communication and distributed quantum computation. The prospects …

The quest for an integrated quantum optics platform has motivated the field of semiconductor
quantum dot research for two decades. Demonstrations of quantum light sources, single …

The interaction between two quantum bits enables the creation of entanglement, the two-
particle correlations that are at the heart of quantum information science. In semiconductor …

Single-photon sources are one of the key components in quantum photonics applications.
These sources ideally emit a single photon at a time, are highly efficient, and could be …

In this Letter, we present narrow line width (7 μeV), nearly background-free single-photon
emission (g (2)(0)= 0.02) and highly indistinguishable photons (V= 0.73) from site-controlled …

In this review, we report on fabrication paths, challenges, and emerging solutions to
integrate group-IV epitaxial quantum dots (QDs) as active light emitters into the existing …

We identify the most important parameters for the growth of ordered SiGe islands on pit-
patterned Si (001) substrates. From a multi-dimensional parameter space we link individual …

Self-assembled nanostructures, such as quantum dots (QDs), quantum rings (QRs) and
nanowires (NWs), have been extensively studied because of their physical properties and …
