Scalable performance in solid-state single-photon sources

JC Loredo, NA Zakaria, N Somaschi, C Anton… - Optica, 2016 - opg.optica.org
The desiderata for an ideal photon source are high brightness, high single-photon purity,
and high indistinguishability. Defining brightness at the first collection lens, these properties …

Inherently trap-free convex landscapes for fully quantum optimal control

RB Wu, Q Sun, T Ho, H Rabitz - Journal of Mathematical Chemistry, 2019 - Springer
A general quantum system may be steered by a control of either classical or quantum nature
and the latter scenario is particularly important in many quantum engineering problems …
