We describe how complex fluctuations of the local environment of an optically active quantum dot can leave rich fingerprints in its emission spectrum. A new feature, termed Fluctuation Induced Luminescence (FIL), is observed to arise from extremely rare fluctuation events that have a dramatic impact on the response of the system-so called black swan events. A quantum dissipative master equation formalism is developed to describe this effect phenomenologically. Experiments performed on single quantum dots subject to electrical noise show excellent agreement with our theory, producing the characteristic FIL sidebands.

We revisit Mandels notion that the degree of coherence equals the degree of indistinguishability by performing Hong-Ou-Mandel- (HOM-)type interferometry with single photons elastically scattered by a cw resonantly driven excitonic transition of an In
As/GaAs epitaxial quantum dot. We present a comprehensive study of the temporal profile of the photon coalescence phenomenon which shows that photon indistinguishability can be tuned by the excitation laser source, in the same way as their coherence time. A new figure of merit, the coalescence time window, is introduced to quantify the delay below which two photons are indistinguishable. This criterion sheds new light on the interpretation of HOM experiments under cw excitation, particularly when photon coherence times are longer than the temporal resolution of the detectors. The photon indistinguishability is extended over unprecedented time scales beyond the detectors response time, thus opening new perspectives to conducting quantum optics with single photons and conventional detectors.
The two-photon luminescence (TPL) of gold nanoparticles (NP) was shown to result from the excitation of hot carriers, the plasmonic NP resonances playing an important role both for plasmon enhanced absorption and plasmon enhanced emission. However, t
he exact parameters enabling to control or optimize the NP nonlinear luminescence still need to be understood in detail. In this paper, we report the two-photon excited photoluminescence of single gold nanorods exhibiting identical aspect ratio (close to 4) and thus identical plasmonic resonances, but increasing volumes V (707 <V< 160 103 nm3 i.e. rod diameters varying between 6 and 40 nm). The two-photon luminescence intensity of a high number of colloidal nanorods was investigated at the single object level, combining polarization resolved TPL and simultaneously acquired topography. Non-monotonic TPL variations are evidenced, nanorods with an intermediate size (diameter around 10 nanometers) exhibiting the highest TPL signal intensity. A model is proposed considering both the local field enhancement effects at the NP and the size-dependent electron thermalization processes. BEM (Boundary Elements Method) simulations are used to compute the fields at both the transverse and longitudinal plasmon resonance. A good fitting of the experimental data is obtained considering integration of the fields over the whole the NP volume.
Advances in nanotechnology provide techniques for the realisation of integrated quantum-optical circuits for on-chip quantum information processing(QIP). The indistinguishable single photons, required for such devices can be generated by parametric d
own-conversion, or from quantum emitters such as colour centres and quantum dots(QDs). Among these, semiconductor QDs offer distinctive capabilities including on-demand operation, coherent control, frequency tuning and compatibility with semiconductor nanotechnology. Moreover, the coherence of QD photons can be significantly enhanced in resonance fluorescence(RF) approaching at its best the coherence of the excitation laser. However, the implementation of QD RF in scalable on-chip geometries remains challenging due to the need to suppress stray laser photons. Here we report on-chip QD RF coupled into a single-mode waveguide with negligible resonant laser background and show that the coherence is enhanced compared to off-resonant excitation. The results pave the way to a novel class of integrated quantum-optical devices for on-chip QIP with embedded resonantly-driven quantum emitters.

Recently, longitudinal acoustic phonons have been identified as the main source of the intensity damping observed in Rabi rotation measurements of the ground-state exciton of a single InAs/GaAs quantum dot. Here we report experiments of intensity dam
ped Rabi rotations in the case of detuned laser pulses, the results have implications for the coherent optical control of both excitons and spins using detuned laser pulses.
