Resonanz-Fluoreszenz in kohärent gekoppelten Quantenpunkt-Mikrosäulenresonatoren
Final Report Abstract
Within the funding period, all central goals of the project have been achieved. As far as the work in Würzburg is concerned, the main results of the project are: Optimization of QD-micropillar technology for the realization of samples operating in the strong light-matter coupling regime with more than 50% yield using In0.4Ga0.6As/GaAs QDs featuring increased oscillator strengths exceeding 20 in combination with high Q-factor (13 000 on average) and small mode volume 10(λ/n)3 micropillar cavities. Realization of samples for operation in the weak coupling regime for the investigation of dressed states, based on In0.45Ga0.55As/GaAs quantum dots in small (1.5 µm diameter) micropillars with high quality factors between 14000 and 19000. Development of a process for the self-aligned fabrication of metal apertures for QD-micropillars, resulting in efficient stray light suppression (up to a factor of 15 compared to samples without metal apertures) in resonance fluorescence experiments under side excitation.
