On-demand semiconductor single-photon source with near-unity indistinguishability

TLDR
Pulsed resonance fluorescence has been anticipated as the optimum condition for the deterministic generation of high-quality photons with vanishing effects of dephasing and is generated from a single, microcavity-embedded quantum dot under s-shell excitation with 3 ps laser pulses.
Abstract
Pulse-excited resonance-fluorescence single-photons are generated on demand from a single quantum dot embedded in a microcavity under s-shell excitation with an ultrafast laser source.

Pulsed Rabi Oscillations in Quantum Two-Level Systems: Beyond the Area Theorem

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the breakdown of the Area Theorem as both the pulse length becomes non-negligible and for certain pulse areas, using simple quantum trajectories, they provided an analytic approximation to the photon emission dynamics of a two-level system.
