High-purity fluorescence photon bundle emission from two separate emitters

Abstract

We propose a scheme for generating high-purity fluorescence two-photon bundles from two spatially separate two-level emitters, whose correlated excitation is mediated by a strongly driven auxiliary emitter. Unlike bosonic-mode-based approaches, the finite excitation space of the two target emitters intrinsically excludes higher-excitation manifolds, and thus eliminates impurity photons associated with undesired higher-excitation states. We further analytically characterize the residual population of off-resonant single-excitation states and show that suppressing the corresponding leakage improves photon bundle purity. Our scheme offers a feasible pathway for constructing high-purity quantum light sources with promising applications in quantum information processing.
