Abstract

Phonons in solid-state quantum emitters play a crucial role in their performance as photon sources in quantum technology. For resonant driving, phonons dampen the Rabi oscillations, resulting in reduced state-preparation fidelities. The phonon spectral density, which quantifies the strength of the carrier-phonon interaction, is nonmonotonic as a function of energy. As one of the most prominent consequences, this should lead to the reappearance of Rabi rotations for increasing pulse power, according to the theoretical predictions in Vagov et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett.98, 227403 (2025) PRLTAO 0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett.98.227403]. In this Letter, we present the experimental demonstration of the reappearance of Rabi rotations for a resonantly driven quantum dot.
