In-situ tuning of individual position-controlled nanowire quantum dots via laser-induced intermixing
arXiv:1804.02758 · doi:10.1063/1.5040268
Abstract
We demonstrate an in-situ technique to tune the emission energy of semiconductor quantum dots. The technique is based on laser-induced atomic intermixing applied to nanowire quantum dots grown using a site-selective process that allows for the deterministic tuning of individual emitters. A tuning range of up to 15 meV is obtained with a precision limited by the laser exposure time. A distinct saturation of the energy shift is observed, which suggests an intermixing mechanism relying on grown-in defects that are subsequently removed from the semiconductor material during annealing. The ability to tune different emitters into resonance with each other will be required for fabricating remote quantum dot-based sources of indistinguishable photons for secure quantum networks.
