 This paper presents a new approach to controlling individual artificial atoms in silicon-on-insulator photonic integrated circuits. The authors demonstrated the generation, addressability, and spectral tuning of these artificial atoms, which are capable of emitting light in the O-band of telecommunications. They also introduced a technique for optical trimming of spectral transitions up to 300 picometers, 55 gigahertz, enabling the alignment of quantum emitters into 25 gigahertz telecommunication grid channels. This work opens the door to quantum information processing based on implantable artificial atoms in very large-scale integrated photonics.
