Quantum information processing using quantum dot spins and cavity QED

TLDR
In this paper, a scheme that realizes controlled interactions between two distant quantum dot spins is proposed, where the effective long-range interaction is mediated by the vacuum field of a high finesse microcavity.
Abstract
The electronic spin degrees of freedom in semiconductors typically have decoherence times that are several orders of magnitude longer than other relevant time scales. A solid-state quantum computer based on localized electron spins as qubits is therefore of potential interest. Here, a scheme that realizes controlled interactions between two distant quantum dot spins is proposed. The effective long-range interaction is mediated by the vacuum field of a high finesse microcavity. By using conduction-band-hole Raman transitions induced by classical laser fields and the cavity-mode, parallel controlled-not operations, and arbitrary single qubit rotations can be realized.

Strong coupling in a single quantum dot–semiconductor microcavity system

TL;DR: The observation of strong coupling of a single two-level solid-state system with a photon, as realized by a single quantum dot in a semiconductor microcavity, may provide a basis for future applications in quantum information processing or schemes for coherent control.

Quantum nature of a strongly coupled single quantum dot–cavity system

TL;DR: Observations unequivocally show that quantum information tasks are achievable in solid-state cavity QED by observing quantum correlations in photoluminescence from a photonic crystal nanocavity interacting with one, and only one, quantum dot located precisely at the cavity electric field maximum.
