Bright Single-Photon Source at 1.3 μm Based on InAs Bilayer Quantum Dot in Micropillar
نویسندگان
چکیده
A pronounced high count rate of single-photon emission at the wavelength of 1.3 μm that is capable of fiber-based quantum communication from InAs/GaAs bilayer quantum dots coupled with a micropillar (diameter ~3 μm) cavity of distributed Bragg reflectors was investigated, whose photon extraction efficiency has achieved 3.3%. Cavity mode and Purcell enhancement have been observed clearly in microphotoluminescence spectra. At the detection end of Hanbury-Brown and Twiss setup, the two avalanched single-photon counting modules record a total count rate of ~62,000/s; the time coincidence counting measurement demonstrates single-photon emission, with the multi-photon emission possibility, i.e., g 2(0), of only 0.14.

We developed a new approach to test the single-photon emissions of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) in the optical communication band. A diamond-anvil cell pressure device was used for blue-shifting the 1.3 μm emissions of InAs/GaAs QDs to 0.9 μm for detection by silicon avalanche photodiodes. The obtained g((2))(0) values from the second-order autocorrelation function measurements of several Q...

High-bit-rate nanocavity-based single photon sources in the 1,550-nm telecom band are challenges facing the development of fibre-based long-haul quantum communication networks. Here we report a very fast single photon source in the 1,550-nm telecom band, which is achieved by a large Purcell enhancement that results from the coupling of a single InAs quantum dot and an InP photonic crystal nanoc...
