  1. First slot, current experimental parameters, with a two-photon interference (TPI) visibility of 30%, consistent with experimental results. Each row shows the impact of FSS and g(2)(0). TPI visibility can increase to \({V}_{{{\rm{TPI}}},\max }^{\,{\rm{Rmt}}\,}\) = 59% if Fourier-limited linewidths are considered. The radiative cascade still limits this value; nevertheless, average teleportation fidelities above the classical limit can be expected. Accelerating the biexciton decay selectively (so that γXX/γX = 5) can increase the TPI visibility to 83%. The last row shows the achievable fidelities for \({V}_{{{\rm{TPI}}},\max }^{\,{\rm{Rmt}}\,}\) = 100% as a function of FSS and g(2)(0). The following parameters were used: decay time of exciton τX = 171 ps, polarization mode overlap Mp = 1; when present, dephasing time T2 = 35 ps, cross-dephasing time τHV = 10 ns, spin scattering time τss = 10 ns, ratio of wanted three-fold coincidences to all detected three-fold coincidence k = 0.85.
