Three-Dimensional Electrical Control of the Excitonic Fine Structure for a Quantum Dot in a Cavity

Résumé

The excitonic fine structure plays a key role for the quantum light generated by semiconductor quantum dots, both for entangled photon pairs and single photons. Controlling the excitonic fine structure has been demonstrated using electric, magnetic, or strain fields, but not for quantum dots in optical cavities, a key requirement to obtain high source efficiency and near-unity photon indistinguishability. Here, we demonstrate the control of the fine structure splitting for quantum dots embedded in micropillar cavities. We propose and implement a scheme based on remote electrical contacts connected to the pillar cavity through narrow ridges. Numerical simulations show that such a geometry allows for a three-dimensional control of the electrical field. We experimentally demonstrate tuning and reproducible canceling of the fine structure, a crucial step for the reproducibility of quantum light source technology.
