Abstract
Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) may be applied to solid-state quantum emitters of interest for quantum light sources or nodes in distributed quantum networks. For such emitters, resonant optical driving results in the highest degree of photon indistinguishability, but leads to the need to reject scattered light from the laser used to drive the emitter. In this work, we apply femtosecond pulse shaping techniques to the development of quantum state inversion strategies for QD emitters that optimize fidelity and source brightness. The control protocols we have developed would be applicable to a wide range of solid-state QE systems.
