Abstract:We report on linewidth analysis of optical transitions in InAs/GaAs coupled quantum dots as a function of bias voltage, temperature, and tunnel coupling strength. A significant line broadening up to 100 µeV is observed at hole tunneling resonances where the coherent tunnel coupling between spatially direct and indirect exciton states is maximized, corresponding to a phonon-assisted transition rate of 150 ns −1 at 20 K. With increasing temperature, the linewidth shows broadening characteristic of single-phonon … Show more
