The use of molecules in quantum optical applications has been hampered by incoherent
internal vibrations and other phononic interactions with their environment. Here we show …

Establishing a highly efficient photon-emitter interface where the intrinsic linewidth
broadening is limited solely by spontaneous emission is a key step in quantum optics. It …

We study the interaction of thermal rubidium atoms with the guided mode of slot waveguides
integrated in a vapor cell. Slot waveguides provide strong confinement of the light field in an …

We demonstrate the resonant excitation of two quantum dots in a photonic integrated circuit

Chiral emission, where the handedness of a transition dipole determines the direction in
which a photon is emitted, has recently been observed from atoms and quantum dots …

Intersection of two or more silicon slot waveguides is inevitable in modern optical integrated
circuits based on a silicon-on-insulator platform. We design a Maxwell's fisheye lens as the …

Optical studies of single emitters have become routine for a number of systems ranging from
atoms and ions in the gas phase to molecules, color centers and quantum dots in the solid …

Single photons represent a major asset for the development of quantum technologies, owing
to their compatibility with advanced photonic integrated circuits, ultimately enabling the …
