This study focuses on single-photon Fourier spectroscopy of excitons and biexcitons in single quantum dots, essential for linear optical quantum computing and quantum teleportation. It explores coherence length, lineshape, and linewidth measurements through Fourier spectroscopy techniques. The experiment setup involves a Michelson interferometer and a HBT correlator, discussing the visibility of emitted photons in self-assembled InP quantum dots. Various experiments reveal insights into the dephasing mechanisms, charging effects, and thermal phonon population affecting quantum dot behavior.
