Popis: Collective excitations in regular structures of strongly interacting driven dipoles have been found to lead to strongly antibunched statistics of the emitted photons [g(2)(0)≪0.5], but precise control of the number of emitters and their spatial distribution is in general a complex experimental task. We overcome this limitation by showing quantum light emission from densely packed driven dipoles does not require their arrangement in any specific structure, pointing strongly towards possible single-photon sources based on hot thermal vapors confined within nanocells, or on irregular quantum dot ensembles.
We would like to acknowledge support from the UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council Grant No. EP/R002061/1, and Charles S. Adams and Thomas F. Cutler for fruitful discussions.
