Abstract

The overall objective of this project is to develop a novel platform for the fabrication of integrated nonclassical light sources that emit Fourier-transform limited single photons on demand. The platform will be based on a strain-engineered quantum emitter in a 2D material, integrated in a circular Bragg reflector (CBR) cavity. At a first stage of the research, quantum photonic sources based on III-V semiconductor quantum dots integrated in CBR cavity will be also investigated.
