✦ Synopsis

We use the spin-polarized excitons in a single quantum dot to design optical controls for basic operations in quantum computing. We examine the ultrafast nonlinear optical processes required and use the coherent nonlinear optical responses to deduce if such processes are physically reasonable. The importance and construction of an entangled state of polarized exciton states in a single quantum dot is explained. We put our proposal in perspective with respect to a number of theoretical suggestions of utilizing the semiconductor quantum dots.

We show that one can achieve spatiotemporal control over the excitation of surface exciton-polaritons in semiconductor nanoparticles by a proper choice of a chirped light pulse. This is achieved in nanoparticles made from semiconductors with strong exciton oscillator strength and small absorption li
