single photon source for quantum information based on single dye molecule fluorescence in liquid crystal host
Molecular Crystals and Liquid Crystals, 2006Co-Authors: Svetlana G Lukishova, Ansgar W Schmid, A J Mcnamara, Robert W Boyd, C R Stroud, Russell Knox, Patrick Freivald, Kenneth L. MarshallAbstract:This paper describes a new application for liquid crystals: quantum information technology. A deterministically polarized single-photon source that efficiently produces photons exhibiting antibunching is a pivotal Hardware Element in absolutely secure quantum communication. Planar-aligned nematic liquid crystal hosts deterministically align the single dye molecules which produce deterministically polarized single (antibunched) photons. In addition, 1-D photonic bandgap cholesteric liquid crystals will increase single-photon source efficiency. The experiments and challenges in the observation of deterministically polarized fluorescence from single dye molecules in planar-aligned glassy nematic-liquid-crystal oligomer as well as photon antibunching in glassy cholesteric oligomer are described for the first time.

room temperature single photon source single dye molecule fluorescence in liquid crystal host
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics, 2003Co-Authors: Svetlana G Lukishova, Ansgar W Schmid, A J Mcnamara, Robert W Boyd, C R StroudAbstract:We report on new approaches toward an implementation of an efficient, room temperature, deterministically polarized, single-photon source (SPS) on demand-a key Hardware Element for quantum information and quantum communication. Operation of a room temperature SPS is demonstrated via photon antibunching in the fluorescence from single terrylene-dye molecules embedded in a cholesteric liquid crystal host. Using oxygen-depleted liquid crystal hosts, dye-bleaching was avoided over the course of more than 1 h of continuous 532-nm excitation. Liquid crystal hosts (including liquid crystal oligomers/polymers) permit further increase of the efficiency of the source: 1) by aligning the dye molecules along a direction preferable for maximum excitation efficiency; 2) by tuning a one-dimensional (1-D) photonic-band-gap microcavity of planar-aligned cholesteric (chiral nematic) liquid crystal layer to the dye fluorescence band.
