Un grand nombre de contributions scientifiques ces dernières années proposent de véhiculer et manipuler l'information par des objets quantiques uniques. Tandis que des perspectives extrêmement impressionnantes sont projetées théoriquement, les réalisations expérimentales sont limitées en raison des insuffisances technologiques des dispositifs que l'état de l'art peut offrir à l'information quantique. Cet article présente des recherches visant à proposer des dispositifs semiconducteurs sources de photons uniques ou de photons jumeaux efficaces, qui permettraient de lever un verrou technologique important dans ce domaine.
A large number of scientific proposals in recent years are based on transport and manipulation of information using single quantum objects. Although very impressive theoretical perspectives have been envisaged, experimental demonstrations are still limited due to technological difficulties with present state-of-the-art devices. This paper presents various approaches aiming at efficient single or twin photons semiconductor sources. The emergence of these devices will be an important technological breakthrough in the field of quantum information.
