Article Abstract
We present a scheme for realizing deterministic single-photon subtraction in a coupled single quantum dot-cavity solid-state system. The device consists of a charged quantum dot and its coupled bimodal photonic crystal cavity with a moderate magnetic field applied in a Voigt configuration. We numerically simulate injection of optical pulses into one of the cavity modes and show that the system deterministically transfers one photon into the second cavity mode for input pulses in the form of both Fock states and coherent states. This device has potential in the application of a compact and integrated solid-state based device for quantum information processing.

Electron beam lithography is a standard method for fabricating photonic micro and nanostructures around semiconductor quantum dots (QDs), which are crucial for efficient single and indistinguishable photon sources in quantum information processing. However, this technique is difficult for direct 3D control of the structure shape, complicating the design and enlarging the 2D footprint to suppress in-plane photon leakage while directing photons into the collecting lens aperture. Here, we present an alternative approach to employ xenon plasma-focused ion beam (Xe-PFIB) technology as a reliable method for the 3D shaping of photonic structures containing low-density self-assembled InAs/InP quantum dots emitting in the C-band range of the 3rd telecommunication window.

The positioning of quantum dots (QDs) in nanowires (NWs) on-axis has emerged as a controllable method of QD fabrication that has given rise to structures with exciting potential in novel applications in the field of Si photonics. In particular, III-V NWQDs attract a great deal of interest owing to their vibrant optical properties, high carrier mobility, facilitation in integration with Si and bandgap tunability, which render them highly versatile. Moreover, unlike Stranski-Krastanov or self-assembled QDs, this configuration allows for deterministic position and size of the dots, enhancing the sample uniformity and enabling beneficial functions.

- Nonclassical light frequency control is crucial for quantum computing, communication, and system integration, yet effective frequency-shift devices for solid-state single-photon sources are limited.
- The proposed solution is an integrated single-photon frequency shifter using acousto-optic modulation on a lithium niobate platform, featuring two interdigital transducers and a silicon waveguide for optimal acoustic wave interaction.
- The device achieved a notable frequency shift of ± 405 GHz with high conversion efficiency, demonstrating its potential for deterministic control in on-chip quantum applications and hybrid quantum networks.
We present a specialized photon subtraction scheme that allows for the deterministic extraction of single photons from multiphoton states while preserving the input single-photon states unaltered. The proposed device integrates two Λ-type emitters with transitions selectively coupled to a single chiral waveguide through single photon Raman interaction (SPRINT). We develop a comprehensive theoretical model for the system using the input-output formalism within the SLH framework and conduct numerical simulations to analyze its interaction with traveling few-photon pulses of coherent light.
