High-Performance NOON State from a Quantum Dot Single Photon for Supersensitive Optical Phase Measurement
Abstrak
We investigate the utilization of advanced single photons produced by quantum dots (QDs) in a microcavity for quantum metrology. Through the integration of lateral excitation and the Purcell effect in an Fabry–Perot microcavity, we realized single-photon emission with an extraction efficiency of 46.39%, high purity of 96.91%, and high indistinguishability of 98.32%. Our QD-generated single photons enabled the creation of high-quality NOON states (N = 2) for phase measurement, yielding an interference contrast of 79.79% and surpassing the standard quantum limit (SQL) with phase super-sensitivity. Our results underscore the immense potential of QD-derived single photons for propelling quantum metrology forward, facilitating enhanced precision measurements across diverse applications.
