Entanglement dynamics of photon pairs emitted from quantum dot
We present a model to derive the state of the photon pairs generated by the
biexciton cascade decay of a self-assembled quantum dot, which agrees well with
the experimental result. Furthermore we calculate the concurrence and
entanglement sudden death is found in this system with temperature increasing,
which prevents quantum dot emits entangled photon pairs at a high temperature.
The relationship between the fine structure splitting and the sudden death
temperature is provided too
Phase Compensation Enhancement of Photon Pair Entanglement Generated from Biexciton Decays in Quantum Dots
Exciton fine-structure splittings within quantum dots introduce phase
differences between the two biexciton decay paths that greatly reduce the
entanglement of photon pairs generated via biexciton recombination. We analyze
this problem in the frequency domain and propose a practicable method to
compensate the phase difference by inserting a spatial light modulator, which
substantially improves the entanglement of the photon pairs without any loss.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
