Dark exciton optical spectroscopy of a semiconducting quantum dot embedded in a nanowire
Abstract
Photoluminescence of a single CdSe quantum dot embedded in a ZnSe nanowire has been investigated. It has been found that the dark exciton has a strong influence on the optical properties. The most visible influence is the strongly reduced excitonic emission compared to the biexcitonic one. Temperature dependent lifetime measurements have allowed us to measure a large splitting of E = 6 meV between the dark and the bright exciton as well as the spin flip rates between these two states.
