Definitions
- the invention relates to a source of entangled photon pairs - and more precisely polarization-entangled - and to its method of manufacture. It applies in particular to the field of quantum cryptography, and more generally to that of quantum information.
- Quantum cryptography is a fast-growing technology that exploits the laws of quantum mechanics to ensure perfect privacy of communications by detecting the interception of a message (including an encryption key) transmitted using a communication protocol. based on the use of isolated photons.
- Quantum relays the essential component of which is a source of entangled photon pairs. It is recalled that two photons are said to be entangled when they are jointly described by a quantum state which is not separable, that is to say which can not be written in the form of a tensor product between two states describing each one a single photon.
- a source of entangled photon pairs should emit such a pair - and only one - each time it receives an excitatory pulse.
- the sources currently available are very limited in flow: for each excitatory pulse there is only a probability of the order of 2 - 5% that a pair of entangled photons is actually emitted and collected.
- the probability of emission of two pairs of photons is proportional to the square of the probability of emission of a single pair. It is therefore not possible to guarantee that the probability of emission of more than one pair of photons per pump pulse is negligible only if the probability of emission of a single pair is low, typically of order of 5%. Thus only about 5% of the pump pulses actually give rise to the emission of a pair of entangled photons.
- a pair of entangled photons can be generated for each exciting pulse.
- these photons are emitted isotropically in a medium with high optical index, so that only a small fraction of them - of the order of 2% - can be extracted.
- the present invention aims to allow the realization of a "high-speed" source, emitting one and only one pair of polarization-entangled photons at each exciting pulse, or at least with a substantially higher probability than in known sources of light. prior art. According to the invention, this objective is achieved by increasing the efficiency of extraction of the photon pairs emitted by radiative cascade in a quantum transmitter.
- a first idea underlying the invention is to place the generator quantum transmitter in an optical cavity to facilitate the extraction of photons emitted by Purcell effect. This technique is known by itself, and exploited in particular for the production of photon sources isolated. But, without any particular precaution, it does not allow to preserve the entanglement between the photons of the same pair.
- a second idea underlying the invention is to provide a second cavity, coupled to the first. The coupling of the two cavities (“photonic molecule”) makes it possible to efficiently extract the photons generated without adversely affecting their entanglement.
- An object of the invention is therefore a source of polarization entangled pairs of photons comprising a quantum emitter, such as for example a quantum dot, having a ground state, two states with elementary excitation, degenerate and of different spin, and a state with two elementary excitations; characterized in that it also comprises a first optical cavity in which said quantum transmitter is inserted and a second optical cavity coupled with said first cavity; wherein the geometry of the first and second cavities, as well as the strength of their coupling, are chosen such that the assembly constituted by the two coupled cavities has a first pair of degenerate modes in polarization and resonant with the transitions between the state with two elementary excitations and the two states degenerate at an elementary excitation of the quantum emitter, and a second pair of degenerate modes in polarization and resonant with the transitions between said degenerate states at an elementary excitation and the ground state .
- a quantum emitter such as for example a quantum dot, having a ground
- the parameters on which one acts to satisfy these conditions are typically the dimensions (diameter, in the case of micro-disks or micro-pillars) of the cavities and their relative distance.
- the cavities are generally arranged side by side in the plane of the substrate from which they are made and / or in a plane perpendicular to the direction of emission of the light. Preferably, they allow to confine the light in three dimensions.
- the elementary excitations can be excitons (electron / hole pairs linked by Coulomb interaction), in which case we speak of "excitonic” and "biexcitonic” states.
- Two modes or two quantum states are considered degenerate when their energy gap (which is never exactly zero) is less than their spectral width (which is always finite).
- the modes of each of said pairs may have overlapping radiation patterns of 70% or more, and preferably 80% or more.
- the recovery percentage is determined by calculating the scalar product of the normalized electric fields of the modes. In practice, the recovery can reach 98-99% or more.
- the geometry of said optical cavities may be chosen so as to cause a Purcell effect acceleration of the spontaneous emission of transitions between the state with two elementary excitations and the two degenerate states with an elementary excitation of the quantum emitter, as well as transitions between said degenerate states at an elementary excitation and the ground state.
- said acceleration of the spontaneous emission can be characterized by a ratio F p / (F p + y)> 0.5 and preferably F p / (F p + y)> 0.75, where F p is the Purcell factor of the optical mode of said transition and ⁇ the normalized rate of spontaneous emission of said transition in all the other optical modes.
- F p may be greater than or equal to 3, which leads to a satisfactory extraction rate (of about 75%) even when ⁇ is of the order of 1.
- the geometry of the coupled cavities can be chosen in such a way that the Purcell factor of the transitions between the degenerate states at an elementary excitation and the ground state is higher than that of the transitions between the state with two elementary excitations and the two states. degenerate to an elemental excitation. This can be achieved, in particular, by coupling two cavities with different dimensions.
- the coupled cavities may be selected from micropillar type cavities, microdisk type cavities and photonic crystal cavities.
- the source may also comprise electrical or optical pumping means of said quantum transmitter, and / or frequency tuning means of said cavities.
- Another object of the invention is a method of manufacturing a source of entangled photon pairs as described above comprising the steps of:
- FIG. 1 the diagram of the energetic states of a quantum transmitter - and more precisely of a quantum dot - that can be used for the implementation of the invention
- Figure 2 the process of generating a pair of entangled photons in such a quantum dot

- FIGS. 5A, 5B and 5C of the energetic diagrams of the modes of a "photonic molecule" as a function of the distance between the coupled optical cavities;
- FIG. 6 images of the radiation patterns of a photonic molecule

- FIGS. 8A and 8B respectively, a dissymmetrical "photonic molecule" and the spatial distribution of optical intensity for two modes of such a molecule
- Figure 9 an illustration of a method of manufacturing the source of the invention.
- a semiconductor quantum dot is a nanoscale insertion of small bandgap material into a large bandgap material.
- a quantum box is a trap for the carriers in the three directions of space so that the states of energy allowed are discrete. In particular, if we trap two electron-hole pairs in a quantum box, two photons will be emitted successively: these two photons are emitted at two different energies, E xx for the biexciton-exciton transition and E x for the exciton transition. fundamental state, because the interaction between the carriers trapped within the quantum dot is different according to whether two or four carriers are present (see the energy diagram of FIG. 1 and the emission spectrum on the left of Figure 2).
- the state of the quantum box occupied by two electron-hole pairs is hereinafter referred to as biexciton (XX) and that to an exciton pair (X).
- Biexciton XX is a state whose spin is not defined.
- the exciton X may have two different spin states: electron spin (e) "upward” and spin of hole (h) “downward”, or vice versa.
- the transition from the biexcitonic state to a first excitonic state is accompanied by the emission of a photon of energy E xx circularly polarized to the right ( ⁇ +); then the transition to the ground state is accompanied by the emission of a photon energy E x circularly polarized to the left ( ⁇ -).
- the transition from the biexcitonic state to the second excitonic state is accompanied by the emission of a photon of energy ⁇ circularly polarized to the left ( ⁇ -); then the transition to the ground state is accompanied by the emission of a photon energy E x circularly polarized to the right ( ⁇ +).
- the two excitonic spin states may be degenerate or not.
- the degenerate case that is to say when the energy difference between the two states, without being zero, is less than their width - necessarily finite
- the two possible recombination paths between the biexcitonic state XX and the ground state 0 are indistinguishable and the emitted photons are entangled in polarization (see Figure 2).
- the difference in energy between the two exciton states is greater than the width of the transitions, the emitted photons are correlated in polarization but not entangled.
- a quantum box Like any "punctiform" source, a quantum box emits photons in a quasi-isotropic way. Moreover, the quantum box is inserted in a relatively high index optical medium (for example, 3.5 in the case of a GaAs matrix), because of the total internal reflection at the air interface. semiconductor (index 1 and 3.5 respectively), only about 6% of the photons emitted by the quantum dot actually come out of the semiconductor, and less than 1 -3% can be effectively coupled to an optical fiber.
- a relatively high index optical medium for example, 3.5 in the case of a GaAs matrix
- FIG. 3 illustrates this principle for a micropillar-type cavity ⁇ .
- two interferential mirrors or "Bragg" M1, M2 confine the field in the direction z.
- the index contrast between the material and the air ensures the confinement in the other two directions (fiber optic guiding effect).
- a fraction F p / (F p + y) of photons is emitted in the MO mode of the cavity, while the remaining fraction - equal to ⁇ / (F p + y) - is emitted in the other modes.
- the spontaneous emission rate ⁇ has a value close to 1.
- F p the order of the order of 75%
- Other cavities for example photonic crystal cavities or micropilars whose lateral surface is metallized, have ⁇ "1 factors (for example of the order of 0.1). In this case, even a Purcell factor of the order of 1 makes it possible to achieve very satisfactory extraction rates.
- the cavity must be resonant with both transitions. This can not be achieved, in general, by acting on the only parameter that is available in practice to grant an optical cavity of microscopic dimensions may be coupled to a quantum dot, that is to say, its size.
- the entangled photons emitted by a quantum dot are effectively extracted by means of a "photonic molecule", that is to say a structure formed by two optical cavities, preferably capable of confining the three-dimensional light, coupled together and with the quantum dot
- FIG. 4A shows a scanning electron microscope image of a structure ("photonic molecule") formed by two micropirector-type cavities ⁇ 1 and ⁇ 2.
- Figure 4B shows - very schematically - a sectional view of such a structure; here we consider that the two cavities are identical, even if it is not essential, as will be explained later.
- the present inventors have realized that, for cavities having degenerate polarization modes, this coupling can be achieved while maintaining substantially unpolarized coupled modes. Because of their circular symmetry, the micropirector-type cavities, taken individually, exhibit degenerate modes in polarization. Because of the coupling, each mode of the cavity splits into two different energy modes; but surprisingly, despite the obvious break of symmetry, the degeneration in polarization is substantially preserved (the energy difference between the polarized modes parallel or perpendicular to the axis of the "molecule" remains very small in front of the width spectral resonance modes). This property is essential to preserve the indisputability of the two photons emitted.
- the four optical modes are degenerate in wavelength and circular polarization. When the pillars are close together, the coupling between the two cavities lifts this degeneracy: the four modes are divided into two wavelengths (binding mode Li and anti-binder AL-i).
- the photonic molecule For each of these wavelengths (L-i or AL-i), the photonic molecule has two modes (+ and -) of very close energy. In other words, the molecule has a first pair of degenerate modes in polarization (Li +, Li-), and a second pair of degenerate modes in polarization (ALi +, AL) of higher energy. Only for very strong couplings the degeneracy in polarization is raised, and each mode has a linear polarization.
- each individual cavity has a plurality of modes that split after coupling. Consequently, the photonic molecule also has L 2 , AL 2 modes resulting from the duplication of the second mode of each micropillar, and so on.
- the parameters d and D of the photonic molecule can be chosen to match the transitions XX -> X and X-> 0 with any two of these modes.
- the modes AI_i + / ALi, + / - and L 2 + / L 2 - have radiation patterns over 95% overlapping so that no information on the radiative recombination path of the biexciton can be obtained. by observing the radiation pattern.
- Figure 7 shows a diagram of the emission intensity of a quantum dot coupled to a photonic molecule as a function of temperature.
- the transitions X-0 and XX-X resonate with the L 2 and ALi modes of the photonic molecule.
- This figure shows that the modes of the photonic molecule can be tuned with the transitions of the quantum box by a fine control of the temperature T.
- a strong increase of the intensity of the signal is observed when the transitions X-> 0 and XX- X are in resonance with modes L 2 and AL-i.
- This increase of signal is the signature of the redirection of the emission thanks to the acceleration of the spontaneous emission for the two transitions of the quantum dot.
- the photon extraction rate is then given by F P / (F P +1) because the spontaneous emission rate is of the order of that in the bulk material for this type of cavity ( ⁇ "1).
- Figure 7 shows that the source considered in the example operates at cryogenic temperatures below 70K.
- This limitation is inherent to the use of an InAs / GaAs type quantum box emitting at 900 nm.
- the invention can be applied to any type of single quantum transmitter in which a radiative cascade occurs. These emitters are of the type achieving a confinement of carriers in three dimensions.
- the semiconductor nanocrystals 11-VI are good candidates for producing such sources operating at a higher temperature.
- the line width cavity modes is chosen much greater than the energy difference of the modes ALi + and AL (Li + and Li - L 2 + and L 2 -).
- the energy difference between two different polarization modes is about 50 ⁇ , while the width of each mode is about 400 ⁇ .
- the Purcell factor is of the order of 5 which guarantees a collection of about 80%.
- the transition X-0 is higher energy than the transition XX -> X.
- the principle of the invention remains the same in the opposite case: the AL mode! will then be resonant with the transition X- 0 and the mode L 2 with the transition XX -> X. More generally, all the modes of the photonic molecule (Li, ALi, L 2 , AL 2 ...) can be tuned to the two transitions XX -> X and X-0.
- the source of the invention can be optimized in different ways. To achieve an extraction of 80% of the photons towards the top of the structure, it is necessary to choose a reflectivity of the rear mirror superior to that of the mirror of the top. If the two mirrors have the same reflectivity, only a fraction F p / 2 (F p + y) photons is redirected upwards.
- FIG. 8A shows a sectional view of such an asymmetric photonic molecule
- FIG. 8B the spatial distribution of optical intensity inside said molecule for the ALi modes and which, in this example, are resonant with the transitions XX - X and X - 0 respectively.
- transition X-0 is at higher energy than the transition XX-> X
- the principle described above applies, this time reducing the diameter of the pillar containing the quantum dot.
- the use of a temperature control to achieve the spectral agreement between the modes of the cavity and the lines E x and ⁇ is suitable for a demonstration of principle; for practical applications, it is better to use the Stark effect, by applying an electric field along the z axis. See the article by A. Laucht et al. "Electrical control of spontaneous emission and strong coupling for a single quantum dot", New, J. Phys. 11, 023034 (2009).
- the pumping of the cavity may be optical, by coupling with a pump light source such as a semiconductor laser.
- a pump light source such as a semiconductor laser.
- This technique has been used to validate the principle of the invention.
- electrical pumping by means of two electrodes deposited at the ends of the micropillar cavity (the upper electrode being in the form of a ring to allow the extraction of photons).
- Electrical pumping of a quantum dot within a micropillar cavity has recently been demonstrated in C. Bockler et al. "Electrically driven high-Q quantum dot-micropillar cavities", Appl. Phys. Lett. 92, 091107 (2008).
- the invention has been described with reference to a photonic molecule formed by coupling two micropillar cavities. This is not an essential limitation, because other cavities can be used for the implementation of the invention; exemplary cavities microdisques type or photonic crystal. Two cavities of different types may possibly be used. The only constraint is that the cavities present degenerate modes in polarization, and that this degeneration is little affected by the coupling, as it is the case for micropiliers. From the technological point of view it is important that the cavities are arranged side by side, in the plane of the substrate from which they are made and / or in a plane perpendicular to the direction of emission of the light.
- a planar microcavity CP is produced by molecular beam epitaxy, containing in its center a plane in which there is a random distribution of quantum boxes BQ with a density of 10 8 or 10 9 boxes per cm 2 .
- the surface of the sample is then protected to perform rapid thermal annealing at high temperature.
- Such annealing has been shown to lead to reduced degeneration of exciton states: DJP Ellis, et al., "Control of fine-structure splitting of individual InAs quantum dots by rapid thermal annealing", Appl. Phys. Lett. 90, 011907 (2007).
- the annealing is chosen so as to reduce this degeneration lift for the set of quantum dots.
- the planar microcavity containing the quantum boxes is coated with a photoresist layer RP and cooled to a low temperature (typically 10 K).
- a red laser LR insusceptible to insolate the resin, sweeps its surface.
- the wavelength of this laser is chosen to excite the fluorescence emission (F) of the quantum dots; the wavelength of this emission makes it possible to identify and therefore to select the quantum boxes having the desired energy properties.
- F fluorescence emission
- a second green laser LV propagating coaxially with said red laser, then makes it possible to insolate the resin at a given position with respect to the single emitter.
- the resin is first insolated centrally on the quantum dot, then the sample is moved from the distance d to expose a second cavity.
- the parameters D and d are chosen by measuring the energies of the transitions X-0 and XX-X.
- the sample is then raised to ambient temperature, the resin developed.
- a metal deposit followed by a lift-off is then used to etch the molecules.
- a large number of photonic molecules can thus be produced in a single lithography step, which makes it possible to obtain a relatively low manufacturing cost.
- the photonic molecule is made around the emitter (quantum dot), and as a function of the wavelength of the two transitions of the latter. This would not be possible, or would be much more difficult, if the two cavities constituting the photonic molecule were superimposed instead of being arranged side by side.
- Cooling at cryogenic temperature is necessary, at least in some cases, to be able to observe the fluorescence of the quantum dots.
- the operation can be performed at a higher temperature.
