We identify an optical signature for detecting entanglement in experimental
nanostructure systems comprising coupled excitonic qubits. This signature owes
its strength to non-Markovian dynamical effects in the second-order temporal
coherence function of the emitted radiation. We calculate autocorrelation and
cross-correlation functions for both selective and collective light excitation,
and prove that the coherence properties of the emitted light do indeed carry
information about the entanglement of the initial multi-qubit state.
We also show that this signature can survive in the presence of a noisy
environment.Comment: 4 pages, 4 color figures. Minor changes. Accepted version to be
