TRR 142 - Ultrafast coherent opto-electronic control of a photonic quantum system (B06*)
In this project we will integrate semiconductor quantum dots in field-tunable microcavity heterostructures to achieve ultrafast coherent opto-electronic control of the emitter cavity coupling. By tuning different quantum dot transitions in and out of the cavity resonance we aim to generate (i) cavity assisted two-photon emission, (ii) hyper ...

TRR 142 - Hybrid lithium niobate on insulator quantum photonic integrated circuit (C08*)
In this project, we will explore thin-film lithium niobate on insulator (LNOI) as the material platform for quantum photonic integrated circuits. After transfer printing of cavity coupled InAs quantum dots onto a LNOI circuit, we will on-chip frequency convert the on-demand generated photons from the quantum dot using a periodically poled LNOI ...
