Problems solved by technology

However, quantum dot microcavity single photon sources also face many problems, such as: 1) Due to the limitation of the energy band, most of these devices emit light in the 920nm-1300nm band, which cannot cover the 850nm band, and due to the lack of high performance in the >1100nm band The single-photon detectors currently studied mainly focus on the 920-940nm range; 2) the long-wavelength In(Ga)As / GaAs quantum dots have multiple energy levels, and the excitons emit complex light, and the hole energy level separation becomes variable. Very small (8-10meV), the carrier is easily thermalized, the gain is saturated, and it is difficult to achieve high-performance single-photon emission

Abstract

The invention provides a photonic crystal nano cavity quantum ring single-photon emission device and a preparation method of the photonic crystal nano cavity quantum ring single-photon emission device so as to solve the problem that a single photon source exists in a single quantum dot microcavity, and belongs to the field of quantum informatics. A buffer layer, a lower Bragg reflection mirror, an optical flaw layer and an upper Bragg reflection mirror are grown on a substrate in sequence. An upper electrode contact layer is grown on the peripheral zone above the upper Bragg reflection mirror. A lower electrode contact layer is grown below the substrate. A surface transverse two-dimensional photonic crystal structure is formed by an air hole-semiconductor which is manufactured through micro-nano machining. The optical dimension of an internal transverse resonant cavity is half the gain wavelength of a quantum ring. The pattern wavelength of a transverse two-dimensional photonic crystal resonant cavity is matched with the gain wavelength of the quantum ring. The quantum ring is located in the middle of the optical flaw layer and located at the center of a three-dimensional nano cavity formed by the upper Bragg reflection mirror, the lower Bragg reflection mirror and the transverse two-dimensional photonic crystal structure. The quantum ring is used as a light-emitting medium, so that quantum efficiency is higher. The quantum ring material can cover a wave band which cannot be covered by quantum dots.
