A quantum emitter efficiently coupled to a nanophotonic waveguide constitutes promising system for the realization of single-photon transistors, quantum-logic gates based on giant nonlinearities, and high bit-rate deterministic sources. The key figure merit such devices is $\beta$-factor, which probability an emitted single photon be channeled into desired mode.

Strong nonlinear interactions between photons enable logic operations for both classical and quantum-information technology. Unfortunately, are usually feeble therefore all-optical gates tend to be inefficient. A quantum emitter deterministically coupled a propagating mode fundamentally changes the situation, since each photon inevitably interacts with emitter, highly correlated many-photon states may created .

Planar photonic technology provides a highly promising route of creating an on-chip and on-demand source single photons, which can be scaled into circuitry. While self-assembled quantum dots have been proven to excellent coherent single-photon emitters in many microscale structures, nanoscale devices the photon coherence compromised due nearby surfaces. Here, authors achieve 94% indistinguishability photons emitted from waveguide under $p$-shell excitation.

Establishing a highly efficient photon-emitter interface where the intrinsic linewidth broadening is limited solely by spontaneous emission key step in quantum optics. It opens pathway to coherent light-matter interaction for, e.g., generation of indistinguishable photons, few-photon optical nonlinearities, and gates. However, residual mechanisms are ubiquitous need be combated. For solid-state emitters charge nuclear spin noise importance, influence photonic nanostructures on has not been...
Solid-state quantum dots are promising candidates for efficient light-matter interfaces connecting internal spin degrees of freedom to the states emitted photons. However, selection rules prevent combination control and optical cyclicity in this platform. By utilizing a photonic crystal waveguide we here experimentally demonstrate up $\approx15$ through state engineering while achieving high fidelity initialization coherent control. These capabilities pave way towards scalable multi-photon...
With a highly coherent, optically addressable electron spin, the nitrogen vacancy (NV) centre in diamond is promising candidate for node quantum network. However, NV poor source of coherent single photons owing to long radiative lifetime, small branching ratio into zero-phonon line (ZPL) and extraction efficiency out high-index host material. In principle, these three shortcomings can be addressed by resonant coupling mode an optical cavity. Utilising weak-coupling regime cavity...

A spin-photon interface should operate with both coherent photons and a spin to enable cluster-state generation entanglement distribution. In high-quality devices, self-assembled GaAs quantum dots are near-perfect emitters of on-demand photons. However, the rapidly decoheres via magnetic noise arising from host nuclei. Here, we address this drawback by implementing an all-optical nuclear-spin cooling scheme on dot. The electron-spin coherence time increases 156-fold ${T}_{2}^{*}=3.9\text{...
