dc.description.abstract | Single photon sources, which are compatible with quantum memories are an important component of quantum networks. In this article, we show optical investigations on isolated GaAs/Al0.25Ga0.75As quantum dots grown via droplet epitaxy, which emit single photons on resonance with the Rb-87-D2 line (780 nm). Under continuous wave resonant excitation conditions, we observe bright, clean and narrowband resonance fluorescence emission from such a droplet quantum dot. Furthermore, the second-order correlation measurement clearly demonstrates the single photon emission from this resonantly driven transition. Spectrally resolved resonance fluorescence of a similar quantum dot yields a linewidth as narrow as 660 MHz (2.7 μeV ), which corresponds to a coherence time of 0.482 ns. The observed linewidth is the smallest reported so far for strain free GaAs quantum dots grown via the droplet method. We believe that this single photon source can be a prime candidate for applications in optical quantum networks. | |
