Three Strategies for Producing Quantum Light with Semiconductor Rydberg Excitons
Online Presentations | 10 May 2023 | Contributor(s):: Valentin Walther
In this talk, I will present three related strategies for this purpose that are effective in the presence of strong dissipation. These possibilities are opened up by high-lying excitonic Rydberg states with unusually strong interactions.

Covalent Defects of Carbon Nanotubes: New Class of High Purity, Indistinguishable Quantum Light Sources
Online Presentations | 02 Jan 2020 | Contributor(s):: Han Htoon
Finally, I will report our most recent Hong-Ou-Mandel quantum optic experiment performed on quantum defects coupled to plasmonic cavities. We were able to realize indistinguishable single photon generation by exploiting the Purcell enhancement of the radiative decay rate of individual...

Many-body Expedition from Semiconductors to Atomic BECs
Online Presentations | 11 Dec 2019 | Contributor(s):: Mackillo Kira
Specifically, I will overview how methods of semiconductor quantum optics relate to phenomena in strongly interacting Bose gas. This expedition focuses on the first unitary BEC experiment which demonstrated that a surprisingly large BEC fraction survived a quench from weak to unitary...

Frequency Bin Quantum Photonics
Online Presentations | 11 Jul 2019 | Contributor(s):: Andrew M Weiner
In this talk I discuss recent advances in manipulation and measurement of quantum states encoded and entangled in the photonic frequency degree of freedom or hyperentangled in time and frequency degrees of freedom. Although the perspective is primarily experimental, I will also attempt to...
