Polarization-correlated photon pairs from a single quantum dot
Polarization-correlated photon pairs from a single quantum dot
Polarization correlation in a linear basis, but not entanglement, is observed between the biexciton and single-exciton photons emitted by a single InAs quantum dot in a two-photon cascade. The results are well described quantitatively by a probabilistic model that includes two decay paths for a biexciton through a nondegenerate pair …
