A single photon source for the THz regime
Paper in proceeding, 2026

We propose a feasible single-photon source that performs over the THz frequency regime based on a single quantum polar emitter coupled to a nanocavity. We demonstrate nonclassical photon correlations showing the single photon nature of its emission as well as the nonlinear production of multiphoton pairs.
