Nuclear spin physics in quantum dots: an optical investigation (2012, background): “For example, knowing the exact polarization basis is crucial when evaluating the degree of entanglement of a source of photon pairs based on optical transitions from the conduction to valence state in a single quantum dot (Akopian et al., 2006; Dousse et al., 2010; Stevenson et al., 2011).”
