• Abstract summary: We show that strong coupling of plasmons to the incoming light source and the pairwise nature of squeezed photon generation enable the formation of entanglement. The entanglement of quantum dots, measured as concurrence, can be improved replacing a pulsed source of light to continuous pumping of squeezed photons.

• Abstract: Our cavity quantum electrodynamics calculations demonstrate generation of steady-state entanglement between a plasmonically coupled pair of quantum dots by using single-mode squeezed light source. We show that strong coupling of plasmons to the incoming light source and the pairwise nature of squeezed photon generation enable the formation of entanglement between the initially unexcited quantum dots. The entanglement of quantum dots, measured as concurrence, can be improved replacing a pulsed source of light to continuous pumping of squeezed photons. Unlike previously introduced schemes the concurrence is robust against variations in the system parameters. Specifically, the generation of entanglement does not rely on fine tuning of plasmon quantum dot coupling. This work provides a new perspective for robust entangled state preparation in open quantum systems.

Control is achieved by controlling classically or quantum mechanically the ac Stark shifts of the atomic levels. We illustrate the control by manipulating the phase, phase superposition, polarization, and direction of a transmitted or reflected photon.

• Boosting entanglement generation in down-conversion with incoherent illumination [0.0]
  Entangled photons produced by spontaneous parametric down-conversion have been of paramount importance for our current understanding of quantum mechanics and advances in quantum information. We show that when a novel class of partially coherent Gaussian pump beams is considered, a distinct type of quantum state can be generated for which the amount of entanglement increases inversely with the degree of coherence of the pump beam. This leads to highly incoherent yet highly entangled multi-photon states, which should have interesting consequences for photonic quantum information science.

We generate highly entangled photon pairs at telecom wavelength that we characterise via two-photon interference and quantum state tomography, achieving near-unity visibilities and fidelities.
