Abstract
The biexciton cascade in a quantum dot can be used to generate entangled-photon pairs rapidly and deterministically (on demand). However, due to a large fine-structure splitting between intermediate exciton energy levels, which-path information encoded in the frequencies of emitted photon pairs leads to a small degree of entanglement. Here we show that this information can be efficiently erased by modulating the exciton and biexciton energy levels, giving rise to additional decay paths through sidebands. The resulting degree of entanglement is substantial and can be made maximal through spectral filtering, with only a nominal reduction in collection efficiency.
