Record‐Low Inhomogeneous Broadening of Site‐Controlled Quantum Dots for Nanophotonics

Abstract: Large arrays of dense, site‐controlled InGaAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) are grown by organometallic chemical vapor deposition in an ordered pattern of tetrahedral recesses (pyramids). These QDs exhibit a low inhomogeneous broadening (≈1 meV), large s–p separation (>50 meV), and efficient single‐photon emission.

“…Pyramidal QDs have wide-ranging properties and applications, including (i) the reproducible formation of excitonic states, which provides uniform single photon emission [11][12][13], (ii) precise coupling in quantum electrodynamic cavities [14] because of accurate site and energy control, and (iii) efficient emission of polarizationentangled photons [15] owing to the high-symmetry [111] growth orientation and the spatial uniformity provided by the patterned substrate. The dependence of the optical transition polarization on the QD shape, size, and symmetry [16] has recently been extended to an analysis that reveals the delicate interplay between the excitonic fine structure and the symmetry and composition of QDs [17].…”

“…Beyond diamond, defect centers in other materials such as silicon carbide [51], gallium nitride [52], or rare-earth ions in solids [53,54] could hold promise, as well as artificial atoms like quantum dots [55][56][57], all of which exhibit appreciable distributions of resonance frequencies.…”

“…The flexibility in controlling their geometry by means of growth conditions and, in certain cases substrate patterning [2], has stimulated several studies on more complex structures able to add further potentialities to lensshaped or pyramidal nanostructures commonly obtained by the Stranski-Krastanov process. In this context, one relevant physical example are closely stacked quantum dots, either consisting of QD layers separated by a thin GaAs spacer [3][4][5], or without using any GaAs spacer (also known as columnar QDs [6] or quantum posts [7]).…”
