Linear optics with photon counting is a prominent candidate for practical quantum
computing. The protocol by Knill, Laflamme, and Milburn [2001, Nature (London) 409, 46] …

Fast, high efficiency and low error single-photon sources are required for the implementation
of a number of quantum information processing applications. The fastest triggered single …

Efficient and bright single photon sources at room temperature are critical components for
quantum information systems such as quantum key distribution, quantum state teleportation …

A quantum emitter efficiently coupled to a nanophotonic waveguide constitutes a promising
system for the realization of single-photon transistors, quantum-logic gates based on giant …

The interaction of matter and light is one of the fundamental processes occurring in nature,
and its most elementary form is realized when a single atom interacts with a single photon …

The concept of the photon, central to Einstein's explanation of the photoelectric effect, is
exactly 100 years old. Yet, while photons have been detected individually for more than 50 …

The recent development of techniques to produce optical semiconductor cavities of very
high quality has prepared the stage for observing cavity quantum-electrodynamic effects in …

We observe large spontaneous emission rate modification of individual InAs quantum dots
(QDs) in a 2D photonic crystal with a modified, high-Q single-defect cavity. Compared to …

Lasers and LEDs have a statistical distribution in the number of photons emitted within a
given time interval. Applications exploiting the quantum properties of light require sources …

We show that metamaterials with hyperbolic dispersion support a large number of
electromagnetic states that can couple to quantum emitters leading to a broadband Purcell …
