Abstract:
We carried out optical selective excitation of individual self-assembled quantum dots by using phase-modulated pulses. Based on scattered photoluminescence excitation resonances in individual QDs, the excitation pulses modulated in the spectral region allows for addressing individual ground states emission. The photoluminescence spectra including several QDs showed intensity changes according to both the modulation energies and phases. The results also suggested the individual control of selective QDs even in collective excitation.
