• Abstract summary: We investigate the two-plasmon spontaneous decay of a quantum emitter near single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and graphene-coated wires (GCWs) We predict two-plasmon emission rates more than twelve orders of magnitude higher than in free-space. Given their low dimensionality, these systems could be more efficient for generating and detecting entangled plasmons in comparison to extended graphene.

• Abstract: We investigate the two-plasmon spontaneous decay of a quantum emitter near single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) and graphene-coated wires (GCWs). We demonstrate efficient, enhanced generation of two-plasmon entangled states in SWCNTs due to the strong coupling between tunable guided plasmons and the quantum emitter. We predict two-plasmon emission rates more than twelve orders of magnitude higher than in free-space, with average lifetimes of a few dozens of nanoseconds. Given their low dimensionality, these systems could be more efficient for generating and detecting entangled plasmons in comparison to extended graphene. Indeed, we achieve tunable spectrum of emission in GCWs, where sharp resonances occur precisely at the plasmons' minimum excitation frequencies. We show that, by changing the material properties of the GCW's dielectric core, one could tailor the dominant modes and frequencies of the emitted entangled plasmons while keeping the decay rate ten orders of magnitude higher than in free-space. By unveiling the unique properties of two-plasmon spontaneous emission processes in the presence of low dimensional carbon-based nanomaterials, our findings set the basis for a novel material platform with applications to on-chip quantum information technologies.

  Two non-identical quantum emitters, when placed within a cavity and coherently excited at the two-photon resonance, can reach stationary states of nearly maximal entanglement. We show that this mechanism is merely one among a complex family of phenomena that can generate both stationary and metastable entanglement when driving the emitters at the two-photon resonance.

  We create spatially and spectrally isolated quantum emitters from WSe$$ monolayers with few or no sources of emission. We show that a bilayer of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and WSe$$ placed on a nano substrate can be used to create and shape wrinkles that communicate local strain to the WSe$$$. We compare quantum emitters created directly on top of substrate features with quantum emitters forming along wrinkles and find that the spectra of the latter consist of mainly a single peak and a low background fluorescence.
