MBE Growth and Optical Properties of Isotopically Purified ZnSe Heterostructures

Abstract: Wide-gap II/VI heterostructures (HS) and quantum wells (QW) composed of ZnSe, CdSe, MgSe, and their ternary and quaternary compounds are attractive candidates for modern quantum optical devices such as single photon sources and optically controlled spin qubits in the visible spectral range. In contrast to similar III/V semiconductor based devices, generally, most of the II/VI compounds allow for isotope purification toward zero-nuclearspin species in the semiconductor environment. Using the same molecular beam… Show more

“…Observation of two-electron-satellite and circular polarization under Faraday magnetic field indicates a single electron ground state which could be employed for spin-qubit applications. Isotopic purification of the host crystal to be nuclear spin free makes Cl impurities an attractive candidate for long-lived memory qubits [17] and providing a route towards optically bright spin qubits with long coherence times. These unique aspects could allow a wide range of applications in quantum information processing.…”

“…Ensemble measurements have also revealed the potential for optical active spin qubits [16]. Recently, the growth of isotopically purified (Zn,Mg)Se/ZnSe quantum well structures was also demonstrated [17]. Spin purification of the host crystal further resulted in extended spin coherence times [18].…”

“…12−17 These emitters also possess a natural spin ground state that can act as a qubit, opening the possibility to realize efficient spin-photon interfaces. 12,15,17,18 In addition, ZnSe quantum wells can be grown and isotopically purified 19 to deplete the nuclear spin background, which should lead to a drastic increase in the spin dephasing times. However, fully harnessing the potential of these emitters for quantum applications requires methods to extract their photon emissions with high efficiency.…”

“…Zinc selenide (ZnSe) has been intensively investigated over the last few decades as a promising II–VI semiconductor material with a direct bandgap possessing excellent properties for optical and electronic applications. In this regard, ZnSe has emerged as a promising host crystal matrix for impurity-bound-exciton-related emission of single photons. , In particular, the ability to generate indistinguishable single photons was recently demonstrated with fluorine (F) donors, spatially isolated in epitaxially grown ZnSe/ZnMgSe QW nanostructures (i.e., ZnSe:F) . It should be noted that no tuning was applied to match the emission wavelength of two independent ZnSe:F emitters in that case, which reflects a low device-to-device spectral variation for the impurity-based SPSs.…”
