摘要:

量子点(QD)可以作为二能级量子系统(如单电子自旋、空穴自旋或激子(束缚电子-空穴对))的方便宿主。由于量子限域的存在,量子点中单个空穴的基态通常具有重空穴(HH)特征。由于这个原因,光空穴(LH)状态在很大程度上被忽略了,尽管与HH状态相比,它可以实现相干光子到自旋转换器或允许更快的自旋操纵。在这项工作中,我们使用大于0.3%的拉伸应变切换的基态的激子限制在高品质的GaAs/AlGaAs量子点从传统的HH-LH型。LH-激子精细结构的特征在于两个平面内极化线和,约400微电子伏特以上,由一个额外的线与显着的面外振荡器强度,符合理论预测的基础上原子的经验赝势计算和一个简单的介观模型。

英文摘要:

Quantum dots (QDs) can act as convenient hosts of two-level quantum szstems, such as single electron spins, hole spins or excitons (bound electron-hole pairs). Due to quantum confinement, the ground state of a single hole confined in a QD usually has dominant heavy-hole (HH) character. For this reason light-hole (LH) states have been largely neglected, despite the fact that may enable the realilzation of coherent photon-to-spin converters or allow for faster spin manipulation compared to HH states. In this work, we use tensile strains larger than 0.3% to switch the ground state of excitons confined in high quality GaAs/AlGaAs QDs from the conventional HH- to LH-type. The LH-exciton fine structure is characterized by two in-plane-polarized lines and, ~400 micro-eV above them, by an additional line with pronounced out-of-plane oscillator strength, consistent with theoretical predictions based on atomistic empirical pseudopotential calculations and a simple mesoscopic model.
