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

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. The ideal single-photon source is an on-demand, deterministic single-photon source that emits exactly one photon within a certain time pulse. The current use of single-photon sources based on parametric downconversion, while excellent in many respects, remains challenging to scale to large-area quantum optical systems. 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 shown to emit single photons, among which quantum dots grown by epitaxy have high oscillator strength, narrow half-wave width, high quantum yield and high s...
