Quantum dots (QDs) embedded in photonic nanostructures have in recent years proven to
be a very powerful solid-state platform for quantum optics experiments. The combination of …

Deterministic quantum interactions between single photons and single quantum emitters are
a vital building block towards the distribution of quantum information between remote …

Solid-state quantum dots are promising candidates for efficient light-matter interfaces
connecting internal spin degrees of freedom to the states of emitted photons. However …

The photonic router is a key device in optical quantum networks. Conventional routers,
however, can only transfer a photon from the input port to the desired port probabilistically …

Removing a single photon from a pulse is one of the most elementary operations that can be
performed on light, having both fundamental significance, and practical applications in …

Single-photon nonlinearity, namely, the change in the response of the system as the result of
the interaction with a single photon, is generally considered an inherent property of a single …

We theoretically analyze the efficiency of a quantum memory for single photons. The
photons propagate along a transmission line and impinge on one of the mirrors of a high …

We propose a deterministic yet fully passive scheme to transfer the quantum state from a
frequency-encoded photon to the spin of a quantum dot mediated by a nanophotonic …

We present a specialized photon subtraction scheme that allows for the deterministic
extraction of single photons from multiphoton states while preserving the input single-photon …

We develop the analytical theory that describes simultaneous transmission of several
photons through a waveguide coupled to a Λ-type atom. We show that after transmission of …
