摘要
We report on the polarization-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy of a single GaAs island quantum dot (QD) formed by the monolayer thickness fluctuation of a GaAs/Al0.3Ga0.7As quantum well and embedded in a Schottky device. By applying a forward vertical electric field between the top metallic contact and the sample substrate we suppress the QD excitonic fine structure splitting to approximate to 1.5 mu eV. These results open the door toward the possible generation of visible entangled photon pairs using GaAs island QDs. (C) 2012 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
