Stacked quantum dots create longer-lasting entangled photons

Quantum ZeitgeistSeptember 15, 20266 min read

Semiconductor quantum dots are ideal for creating single-photon emitters and reliable spin-photon interfaces, now used to generate multi-photon states with 2D entanglement.

Researchers have deterministically generated two-electron spin states within a quantum dot molecule (QDM), a structure that can advance measurement-based quantum information processing. While one-dimensional chains of entangled photons are now routinely created using single quantum dots, building the two-dimensional entanglement structures needed for complex quantum computing has proven challenging; current methods using probabilistic fusion gates struggle as systems grow. This work directly addresses this bottleneck by decoupling the control of orbital hybridization and charge status within the QDM, enabling repeated optical addressing of hybridized states for timescales exceeding 50 microseconds at 1.7 K. The team demonstrates initialization into a well-defined singlet ground state. Multi-photon states exhibiting two-dimensional entanglement…
