Abstract: | We present an optical spectroscopy and photon correlation measurement at telecommunication wavelengths performed on single InAs/InP quantum dots. Two main approaches brought high optical quality: an application of a ‘double-cap’ growth method to metalorganic chemical vapor deposition, and fabrication of a small mesa structure using low-damage wet chemical etching. Sharp and discrete exciton transition lines have been observed on the single quantum dots, which widely cover the spectral range of 1.3–1.55 μm. Using a pulsed excitation source and gated single-photon detection modules, we observed a photon antibunching behavior for an isolated exciton emission line, indicating nonclassical light emission near the wavelength of 1.3 μm. |
