Abstract
We report that with appropriate voltage biasing it is possible to reduce the uncertainty in the time at which photons are emitted from a single quantum dot by an arbitrary factor. Using a resonant cavity light-emitting diode, we reduce the photon emission time jitter to one-fifth of the radiative lifetime. This enables us to demonstrate single-photon emission at a repetition rate of $1.07\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{GHz}$ from both the exciton and biexciton states. This idea may lead to a new method by which pairs of indistinguishable photons can be generated for photonic quantum logic experiments.
