Efficient Generation of Correlated Photon Pairs in a Microstructure Fiber

December 15, 2005
Author(s)
Jingyun Fan, Alan L. Migdall, L Wang
We report efficient generation of correlated photon pairs through degenerate four-wave mixing in microstructure fibers. With 735.7 nm pump pulses producing conjugate signal (688.5 nm) and idler (789.8 nm) photons in an 1.8 m microstructure fiber, we detect

On-demand Single Photons from Individual Epitaxial Quantum Dots

October 24, 2005
Author(s)
Richard P. Mirin, Martin J. Stevens
We will describe our group's efforts to use epitaxial InGaAs/GaAs quantum dots as sources of on-demand single photons and indistinguishable single photons. We have demonstrated second order intensity correlation measurements, g 2τ, with g 2(0) as low as 0

We describe temperature-dependent photon antibunching measurements from single InGaAs/GaAs quantum dots. The second order intensity correlation demonstrates single emitter emission up to 120 K and nonclassical light emission to 135 K.

Author(s)
Kristine Lang, Sae Woo Nam, Joe Aumentado, John M. Martinis, C Urbina
Current-biased Josephson junctions are prime candidates for the implementation of quantum bits; however, a present limitation is their coherence time. In this paper we qualitatively describe the role of quasiparticles in decoherence. We discuss two methods

Tungsten transition-edge sensors have been demonstrated to have impressive photon-counting capabilities. Of particular interest is the expected impact to the applications of low-flux astronomy and photonic quantum information. The combination of high

Author(s)
John M. Martinis, Sae Woo Nam, Joe Aumentado, Kristine Lang, C Urbina
We calculate for the current-biased Josephson junction the decoherence of the qubit state from noise and dissipation. The effect of dissipation can be entirely accounted for through a noise model of the current bias that appropriately includes the effect

A quantum computer, if built, will be to an ordinary computer as a hydrogen bomb is to gunpowder, at least for some types of computations. Today no quantum computer exists, beyond laboratory prototypes capable of solving only tiny problems, and many
