Temporal Quantum Control with Graphene
We introduce a novel strategy for controlling the temporal evolution of a
quantum system at the nanoscale. Our method relies on the use of graphene
plasmons, which can be electrically tuned in frequency by external gates.
Quantum emitters (e.g., quantum dots) placed in the vicinity of a graphene
nanostructure are subject to the strong interaction with the plasmons of this
material, thus undergoing time variations in their mutual interaction and
quantum evolution that are dictated by the externally applied gating voltages.
This scheme opens a new path towards the realization of quantum-optics devices
in the robust solid-state environment of graphene.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure
