Using a strain-reducing layer (SRL) these QDs can be employed for the manufacturing of single-photon sources (SPS) emitting in the telecom O-Band. The OS and IQE are evaluated by determining the radiative and non-radiative decay rate under variation of the optical density of states at the position of the QD as proposed and applied in J. Johansen et al. Phys. Rev. B 77, 073303 (2008) for InGaAs QDs emitting at wavelengths below 1 $\\mu$m. For this purpose, we perform measurements on a QD sample for different thicknesses of the capping layer realized by a controlled wet-chemical etching process. From numeric modelling the radiative and nonradiative decay rates dependence on the capping layer thickness, we determine an OS of 24.6 $\\pm$ 3.2 and a high IQE of about (85 $\\pm$ 10)% for the long-wavelength InGaAs QDs.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-06-09T19:31:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "ingaas quantum dots", "single-photon sources emitting", "oscillator strength", "quantum efficiency", "telecommunication o-band" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
