Photonic quantum technologies are on the verge of finding applications in everyday life with quantum cryptography and the quantum internet on the horizon. Extensive research has been carried out to determine suitable quantum emitters and single epitaxial quantum dots are emerging as near-optimal sources of bright, on-demand, highly indistinguishable single photons and entangled photon pairs. In order to build up quantum networks, it is now essential to interface remote quantum emitters. However, this is still an outstanding challenge, as the quantum states of dissimilar artificial atoms have to be prepared on-demand with high fidelity, and the generated photons have to be made indistinguishable in all possible degrees of freedom. Here, we overcome this major obstacle and show an unprecedented two-photon interference (visibility of 51+/-5%) from remote strain-tunable GaAs quantum dots, emitting on-demand photon-pairs. We achieve this result by exploiting for the first time the full potential of the novel phonon-assisted two-photon excitation scheme, which allows for the generation of highly indistinguishable (visibility of 71+/-9%) entangled photon-pairs (fidelity of 90+/-2%), it enables push-to button biexciton state preparation (fidelity of 80+/-2%) and it outperforms conventional resonant two-photon excitation schemes in terms of robustness against environmental decoherence. Our results mark an important milestone for the practical realization of quantum repeaters and complex multi-photon entanglement experiments involving dissimilar artificial atoms.
Quantum dots in cavities have been shown to be very bright sources of indistinguishable single photons. Yet the quantum interference between two bright quantum dot sources, a critical step for photon based quantum computation, has never been investig
Interference of a single photon generated from a single quantum dot is observed between two photon polarization modes. Each emitted single photon has two orthogonal polarization modes associated with the solid-state single photon source, in which two
We show that with a new family of pyramidal site-controlled InGaAsN quantum dots it is possible to obtain areas containing as much as 15% of polarization-entangled photon emitters - a major improvement if compared to the small fraction achievable by
We apply our recently developed theory of frequency-filtered and time-resolved N-photon correlations to study the two-photon spectra of a variety of systems of increasing complexity: single mode emitters with two limiting statistics (one harmonic osc
We present a theoretical model for the dynamics of an electron that gets trapped by means of decoherence and quantum interference in the central quantum dot (QD) of a semiconductor nanoring (NR) made of five QDs, between 100 K and 300 K. The electron
