The spectroscopy of hot atomic vapours is a hot topic. Many of the work-horse techniques of
contemporary atomic physics were first demonstrated in hot vapours. Alkali-metal atomic …

Efficient fibre-based long-distance quantum communication via quantum repeaters relies on
deterministic single-photon sources at telecom wavelengths, potentially exploiting the …

A hybrid interface of solid-state single-photon sources and atomic quantum memories is a
long sought-after goal in photonic quantum technologies. Here, we demonstrate …

Quantum mechanics implies that a single photon can be in the superposition of two distant
spatial modes and enable nonlocal interferences. The most vivid example is the two-photon …

In recent years, semiconductor quantum dots have demonstrated their potential to reach the
goal of being an ideal source of single and entangled photon pairs. Exciting reports of near …

Abstract The Stranski–Krastanov growth-mode facilitates the self-assembly of quantum dots
(QDs) by using lattice-mismatched semiconductors, for instance, InAs and GaAs. These QDs …

We present a major update to ElecSus, a computer program and underlying model to
calculate the electric susceptibility of an alkali-metal atomic vapour. Knowledge of the …

Photon correlations between the photoluminescence peaks of the Mollow triplet have been
known for a long time, and recently hailed as a resource for heralded single‐photon …

Future quantum networks will need flying qubits and stationary nodes. As for the generation
of single photons which may act as flying qubits, resonantly excited single-semiconductor …

Optical all-pass filters, which exhibit constant amplitude response and pure phase variation,
are extremely desired when only optical phase manipulation is required. However, many …
