Fine Structure Splitting in the Optical Spectra of Single GaAs Quantum Dots

Abstract: We report a photoluminescence study of excitons localized by interface fluctuations in a narrow GaAs͞AlGaAs quantum well. This type of structure provides a valuable system for the optical study of quantum dots. By reducing the area of the sample studied down to the optical near-field regime, only a few dots are probed. With resonant excitation we measure the excited-state spectra of single quantum dots. Many of the spectral lines are linearly polarized with a fine structure splitting of 20 -50 meV. These optic… Show more

“…A sample for the single dot experiments was fabricated from this wafer by depositing an Al mask on the surface and defining an array of indexed apertures with diameters between 25 microns and 200 nm by e-beam lithography. This approach has been described in detail elsewhere [7,8].…”

“…The excited states of excitons and trions in 2D systems have received rather little experimental attention (see, e.g., [8][9][10]), and there has been even less work in quantum dots [7,11,12]. In addition, the coupling of the CM motion to the relative motion for interface fluctuation dots has received little experimental at-tention (see e.g.…”
