▲ [21a-C302-1] [INVITED] Developing Quantum Photon Sources from Low-dimensional Semiconductor Materials

〇Xuedan Ma¹ (1.Center for Nanoscale Materials, Argonne National Laboratory, USA)

Keywords:quantum optics, low-dimensional, semiconductor

Optical photons are ubiquitous in quantum communication and storage applications due to their long coherence times and ease to travel over long distances. On-demand quantum photon sources that may emitter single photons as quantum information carriers are especially sought after for quantum-related applications. In this talk, I will present our recent effort in the development of solid-state quantum photon sources based on low-dimensional semiconductor materials. By molecular doping[1-3] and wavefunction engineering,[4-6] we have demonstrated versatile material platforms that allow efficient single photon generation and modulation. Approaches for achieving facile light-matter interaction by coupling the quantum photon sources to photonic structures will also be discussed.
