Coherent scattering from aligned single quantum emitters in a dielectric nanoguide

The authors developed a new solid-state platform for nanoguide-QED in which both high optical densities and single emitter addressability are achieved. The work has succeeded in embedding organic dye molecules inside the tight mode of a dielectric nanoguide. The results pave the way for the integration of organic quantum emitters into more complex nanocircuits, which enables the combination of single molecule spectroscopy with other quantum optical systems and the realization of hybrid quantum networks.
