Solid-state quantum emitters for photon generation excited by the SUPER scheme

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Single or entangled photon states are vital for quantum communication. They can be generated on-demand by solid-state quantum emitters. Achieving high-fidelity photons depends on the excitation process. In addition to more established schemes, we present a radically different excitation scheme using two red-detuned laser pulses through the swing-up (SUPER) effect. The SUPER scheme is compared to other schemes like Rabi rotations, phonon-assisted preparation and adiabatic rapid passage. Experimental demonstrations of the different schemes are pointed out. With this, we highlight advancements in photon generation from solid-state quantum emitters.
