Single Organic Molecules for Quantum Optics — •Ilja Gerhardt1,2, Mohammad Rezai1, and Jörg Wrachtrup1,21Institute for Quantum Science and Technology (IQST) and 3rd Institute of Physics, D-70569 Stuttgart, Germany — 2Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research, Heisenbergstr. 1, D-70569 Stuttgart, Germany

Single organic molecules at cryogenic conditions allow for the generation of narrow-band (14 MHz), and simultaneously high-flux single photons. In the last years, we managed to combine them with atomic vapors such that effects like slow light on the sodium D2-line (589 nm) could be observed [1]. Now we extend our experiments towards all-optical configurations and high-visibility Hong-Ou-Mandel interference [2]. This configuration is extended towards a “delayed-choice” quantum eraser and allows for the generation of degenerate entangled photon-pairs. The raw data violates Bell’s inequality with a Bell parameter of S=2.24 [3].
