研究目的
To demonstrate a built-in stabilization approach for the photon stream from a quantum dot, relying solely on charge carrier dynamics of a two-dimensional hole gas inside a micropillar structure, to suppress photon noise.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrates an internal stabilization scheme for the fluorescence of a single self-assembled InAs QD using a two-dimensional hole gas, achieving a significant reduction in photon noise. The feedback loop's simplicity and scalability suggest promising applications in large arrays of single photon emitters for quantum networks.
研究不足
The stabilization feedback loop operates effectively up to frequencies of 1 kHz, with the potential for higher bandwidth through device optimization. The current setup's photon count rates introduce high shot noise at low frequencies, limiting the correction effectiveness.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involves the use of a micropillar-patterned, mesa-like heterostructure to confine a two-dimensional hole gas (2DHG) and a quantum dot (QD) for photon noise suppression. The feedback loop between the QD resonance frequency and the hole gas population is utilized for stabilization.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A single low density layer of InAs dots in a GaAs matrix was used, with the device fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy and patterned into micropillar mesa structures.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The setup includes a liquid He confocal dark-field microscope, a tunable diode laser for excitation, an avalanche photodiode (APD) for fluorescence detection, and a piezo-controlled stage under an objective lens.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The resonance fluorescence of the QD was measured under resonant optical excitation, with the feedback loop's effect on photon noise suppression analyzed through time-resolved measurements and noise power spectra.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
The photon-counting statistics model was used to quantify the stabilization effect, and noise power spectra were calculated to evaluate the photon noise reduction.
