Dielectric GaAs Antenna Ensuring an Efficient Broadband Coupling between an InAs Quantum Dot and a Gaussian Optical Beam
Open accessAbstract
We introduce the photonic trumpet, a dielectric structure which ensures a nearly perfect coupling between an embedded quantum light source and a Gaussian free-space beam. A photonic trumpet exploits both the broadband spontaneous emission control provided by a single-mode photonic wire and the expansion of this mode within a conical taper. Numerical simulations highlight the performance and robustness of this concept. As a first application in the field of quantum optics, we report the realization of an ultrabright single-photon source. The device, a high aspect ratio GaAs photonic trumpet containing a few InAs quantum dots, demonstrates a first-lens external efficiency of 0.75±0.1 and an external coupling efficiency to a Gaussian beam as high as 0.58±0.08.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
