Single-photon sources (2005, methodology): “Recently, single-photon sources using single atoms strongly interacting with cavities have been demonstrated by the groups of Rempe and Kimble (Kuhn et al 2002, McKeever et al 2004).”
Quantum key distribution over a 40-dB channel loss using superconducting single-photon detectors (2007, methodology): “The maximum channel loss of the DPS-QKD system is larger than that of the BB84 system using a single photon source with 5 ) 2 ( 10 ) 0 ( − = g and an efficiency 1 = η , which is far beyond the current experimental reach [12-14].”
Quantum memories: emerging applications and recent advances (2015, background): “Deterministic single photon sources are based on single emitters, such as semiconductor quantum dots [152], single molecules [153], single atoms [154], single ions [155] or diamond color centers [156].”
