text: AbstractTailored nanoscale quantum light
sources, matching the specific needs of use cases, are crucial building blocks
for photonic quantum technologies. Several different approaches to realize solid-state
quantum emitters with high performance have been pursued and different concepts
for energy tuning have been established. However, the properties of the emitted
photons are always defined by the individual quantum emitter and can therefore
not be controlled with full flexibility. Here we introduce an all-optical nonlinear
method to tailor and control the single photon emission. We demonstrate a laser-controlled
down-conversion process from an excited state of a semiconductor quantum three-level
system. Based on this concept, we realize energy tuning and polarization control
of the single photon emission with a control-laser field. Our results mark an
important step towards tailored single photon emission from a photonic quantum
system based on quantum optical principles.

text: In our work, we have engineered low capacitance single quantum dot photodiodes
as sensor devices for the optoelectronic sampling of ultrafast electric signals.
By the Stark effect, a time-dependent electric signal is converted into a time-dependent
shift of the transition energy. This shift is measured accurately by resonant
ps laser spectroscopy with photocurrent detection. In our experiments, we sample
the laser synchronous output pulse of an ultrafast CMOS circuit with high resolution.
With our quantum dot sensor device, we were able to sample transients below 20
ps with a voltage resolution in the mV-range.

text: Employing the ultrafast control of electronic states of a semiconductor quantum
dot in a cavity, we introduce an approach to achieve on-demand emission of single
photons with almost perfect indistinguishability and photon pairs with near ideal
entanglement. Our scheme is based on optical excitation off resonant to a cavity
mode followed by ultrafast control of the electronic states using the time-dependent
quantum-confined Stark effect, which then allows for cavity-resonant emission.
Our theoretical analysis considers cavity-loss mechanisms, the Stark effect, and
phonon-induced dephasing, allowing realistic predictions for finite temperatures.

text: "Semiconductor quantum dots are promising sources for polarization-entangled
photons. As an alternative\r\nto the usual cascaded biexciton-exciton emission,
direct two-photon emission from the biexciton can be used.\r\nWith a high-quality
optical resonator tuned to half the biexciton energy, a large proportion of the
photons\r\ncan be steered into the two-photon emission channel. In this case the
degree of polarization entanglement is\r\ninherently insensitive to the exciton
fine-structure splitting. In the present work we analyze the biexciton emission\r\nwith
particular emphasis on the influence of coupling of the quantum-dot cavity system
to its environment.\r\nEspecially for a high-quality cavity, the coupling to the
surrounding semiconductormaterial can open up additional\r\nphonon-assisted decay
channels. Our analysis demonstrates that with the cavity tuned to half the biexciton
energy,\r\nthe potentially detrimental influence of the phonons on the polarization
entanglement is strongly suppressed—high\r\ndegrees of entanglement can still
be achieved. We further discuss spectral properties and statistics of the emitted\r\ntwin
photons."

text: "Semiconductor quantum-dot cavity systems are promising sources for solid-state-based
on-demand generation\r\nof single photons for quantum communication. Commonly,
the spectral characteristics of the emitted single\r\nphoton are fixed by system
properties such as electronic transition energies and spectral properties of the
cavity.\r\nIn the present work we study cavity-enhanced single-photon generation
from the quantum-dot biexciton through\r\na partly stimulated nondegenerate two-photon

text: "Sources of single photons are key elements for applications in quantum information
science.\r\nAmong the different sources available, semiconductor quantum dots
excel with their\r\nintegrability in semiconductor on-chip solutions and the potential
that photon emission can\r\nbe triggered on demand. Usually, the photon is emitted
from a single-exciton ground state.\r\nPolarization of the photon and time of
emission are either probabilistic or pre-determined by\r\nelectronic properties
of the system. Here, we study the direct two-photon emission from the\r\nbiexciton.
The two-photon emission is enabled by a laser pulse driving the system into a\r\nvirtual
state inside the band gap. From this intermediate state, the single photon of
interest\r\nis then spontaneously emitted. We show that emission through this
higher-order\r\ntransition provides a versatile approach to generate a single
photon. Through the driving\r\nlaser pulse, polarization state, frequency and
emission time of the photon can be controlled\r\non-the-fly."
