• Abstract summary: We present a driving scheme for solid-state quantum emitters using frequency-swept pulses containing a spectral hole resonant with the optical transition in the emitter. Our scheme enables high-fidelity state inversion, exhibits robustness to variations in the laser pulse parameters and is immune to phonon-mediated excitation-induced dephasing.

• Abstract: We present a driving scheme for solid-state quantum emitters using frequency-swept pulses containing a spectral hole resonant with the optical transition in the emitter. Our scheme enables high-fidelity state inversion, exhibits robustness to variations in the laser pulse parameters and is immune to phonon-mediated excitation-induced dephasing, benefits that derive from the the insensitivity of the adiabaticity condition to variations in the experimental parameters. Our resonant driving approach could be combined with spectral filtering of the scattered pump light and photonic devices for enhanced collection efficiency to realize simultaneous high indistinguishability and brightness in single photon source applications.

  Doping a self-assembled InGaAs/GaAs quantum dot with a single Mn atom provides a quantum system with discrete energy levels and original spin-dependent optical selection rules. We show evidence for quantum interference within the V-like system and assess the pure dephasing rate between the corresponding spin states.

  phononic excitations constitute a useful interaction channel in hybrid quantum systems. Light-scattering properties of a single-photon emitter and sidebands in resonance fluorescence spectra can be utilized for acousto-optical transduction. It is shown that the readout is faulty in situations where relevant resonant transitions are forbidden due to vanishing Franck-Condon factors.

  We present a proposal for a tunable source of single photons operating in the terahertz (THz) regime. This scheme transforms incident visible photons into quantum THz radiation by driving a single polar quantum emitter with an optical laser. We show that the implementation of this proposal is feasible with state-of-the-art photonics technology.

  We have developed a theory of parametric photon generation in the waveguides coupled to arrays of quantum emitters with temporally modulated resonance frequencies. Such generation can be interpreted as a dynamical Casimir effect. We demonstrate numerically and analytically how the emission directionality and photon-photon correlations can be controlled by the phases of the modulation.
