Problems solved by technology

In the prior art, the enhancement of quantum dots grown by coupling S-K with microcavities is limited, and its Purcell factor is usually limited to about 30; although ultrafast light sources (>80GHz) can be realized by coupling colloidal quantum dots through nanocavities, However, colloidal quantum dots are unstable, can only emit light for a short time and cannot be combined with mainstream silicon (Si)-based processes

Abstract

The invention discloses a quantum dot single photon source and a preparation method thereof. The quantum dot single photon source comprises a substrate layer, a metal layer, a dielectric layer and a nanowire quantum dot layer which are sequentially arranged from bottom to top, wherein the nanowire quantum dot layer is cylindrical and comprises a nanowire quantum dot layer bottom layer, a nanowirequantum dot layer middle layer and a nanowire quantum dot layer top layer; plasmon structure layers in triangular symmetry are arranged at the corresponding positions of the two sides of the nanowirequantum dot layer. The plasmon structure layers re arranged at the height position of the middle layer of the nanowire quantum dot layer. According to the quantum dot single photon source, the local optical state density of a two-level system can be changed through coupling of the nanowire quantum dot layer and the plasmon structure layers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of quantum dots, in particular to a quantum dot single photon source and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Single photon is the basic carrier of quantum technology, such as quantum communication and quantum computer. An ideal single photon source is one that is on-demand, deterministic, emitting exactly one photon within a certain time pulse. Currently using single-photon sources based on parametric down-conversion, although excellent in many respects, scaling to large-area quantum optics remains challenging. The main factors limiting the maximum photon rate of single photon sources are: low collection efficiency and long intrinsic radiative recombination lifetime. [0003] In 2000, semiconductor quantum dots were proved to emit single photons, and the quantum dots grown by epitaxy method had high oscillator strength, narrow half-wave width, high quantum yield and high stability. In quantu...
