Semiconductor quantum dots, with their capability of confining charge carriers and various spin configurations resulting from it, can be regarded as a highly versatile platform for generating non-classical light. While the generation of single photons or entangled photon pairs from quantum dots utilizes the so-called bright excitons and biexcitons respectively, quantum dots can also host optically dark excitons. Such states are optically inactive due to the spin-selection rules. Due to their longer coherence times, a direct and coherent optical excitation and control of dark states are of great interest in modern quantum information protocols [1]. In this work we demonstrate a stimulated excitation and coherent control of the dark exciton population via the biexciton state in a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum dot in presence of an in-plane magnetic field. The versatility of our scheme allows not only a deterministic preparation, but storage and a temporal retrieval of the dark state population, giving rise to a programmed single photon/photon pair emission.

Keywords: quantum dots; dark exciton states; single photons; entangled photons
