High-purity single-photon generation based on cavity QED by Seigo Kikura, Rui Asaoka, Masato Koashi, Yuuki Tokunaga

“…This scheme employs an atom as a four-level system and the structure allows the suppression of the reexcitation process due to the atomic decay, which is known to significantly degrade the single-photon purity in state-of-the-art photon sources using a three-level system. Our analysis shows that the reexcitation probability arbitrarily approaches zero without sacrificing the photon generation probability when increasing the power of a driving laser between two excited states. …”
