We develop a framework to calculate the density matrix of a pair of photons emitted in a decay cascade with partial which path ambiguity. We describe an appropriate entanglement distillation scheme which works also for certain random cascades. The qualitative features of the distilled entanglement are presented in a two dimensional phase diagram. The theory is applied to the quantum tomography of the decay cascade of a biexciton in a semiconductor quantum dot. Agreement with experiment is obtained.

Summary: Control of emission directionality plays a crucial role in the development of novel nanophotonic devices based on nanowires. In this study, we demonstrate highly directional light emissions near 800 nm wavelength from core-shell AlGaAs nanowires with GaAs quantum dots, despite inefficient emission into waveguided modes. Experimental measurements show significantly higher emission intensity around the axis of the nanowire compared to perpendicular directions, suggesting that axial electric dipole transitions in quantum dots contribute to directional emissions.

Quantum Tomography of Entangled Spin-Multiphoton States

Summary: This method utilizes quantum dots to generate spin-multiphoton states, measures the polarization of both spin and photons through time-resolved polarization-sensitive multiphoton correlation measurements, and uses a gradient-descent algorithm to map the periodic physical process that generates the entangled state. The study shows that the enhanced generation rate improves the entanglement robustness of the generated multiqubit state.

Summary: We conducted a study on Wurtzite AlGaAs using both experimental and numerical methods, and found that it is a technologically promising yet unexplored material. By developing a complete numerical model based on an 8-band (k) over right arrow center dot(p) over right arrow method, including electromechanical fields, we calculated the optoelectronic properties of wurtzite AlGaAs nanowires with different Al content and compared them with experimental data. Our results strongly indicate that wurtzite AlGaAs is a direct band gap material. Additionally, we numerically obtained the band gap of wurtzite AlAs and the valence band offset between AlAs and GaAs in the wurtzite symmetry.

Deterministic generation of indistinguishable photons in a cluster state

Dan Cogan, Zu-En Su, Oded Kenneth, David Gershoni

Summary: Entanglement between particles is crucial for quantum technology, and entanglement between light particles is particularly important for quantum communication. The generation of entangled multiphoton cluster states is essential for communication between quantum nodes. In this study, a multi-indistinguishable photon cluster is generated from a quantum dot with a continuously generated string of photons at deterministic rates and an optimized entanglement length of about ten photons. The indistinguishability of the photons opens up new possibilities for scaling up the cluster's dimensionality by fusion.

Spin purity of the quantum dot confined electron and hole in an external magnetic field

Dan Cogan, Zu-En Su, Oded Kenneth, David Gershoni

Summary: We experimentally and theoretically investigate the temporal evolution of the spin of the conduction band electron and that of the valence band heavy hole in the same semiconductor quantum dot. Using all-optical pulse techniques, we measure the total spin purity as a function of time after initialization and study its complex temporal oscillations in the presence of a weak externally applied magnetic field. Our findings contribute to the design and optimization of quantum-dot-spin-based entangled multiphoton sources.
