Abstract

By means of photoluminescence spectroscopy we compare the bias-dependent emissions of single-quantum dots which are embedded in two differently designed photodiode structures. Controlled single-electron charging allows to identify neutral, single- and double-charged excitons in the optical spectra of both samples. At high magnetic fields, one Zeeman component of the single-charged exciton is found to be quenched, which is attributed to the competing effects of tunnelling and spin-flip processes. The strength of the tunnelling coupling between quantum dot and back-contact was found to have a strong influence on the observed spectral features-in particular, the parallel appearance of emission lines resulting from the radiative decay of differently charged quantum dot states is suppressed in case of strong tunnelling interaction.
