Abstract

Abstract We study the luminescence dynamics of telecom wavelength InAs quantum dots grown on InP(111)A by droplet epitaxy. The use of the ternary alloy InAlGaAs as a barrier material leads to photon emission in the 1.55 μ m telecom C-band. The luminescence decay is well described in terms of the theoretical interband transition strength without the impact of nonradiative recombination. The intensity autocorrelation function shows clear anti-bunching photon statistics. The results suggest that our quantum dots are useful for constructing a practical source of single photons and quantum entangled photon pairs.
