Abstract

The coupling between single photon emitters and integrated photonic circuits is an emerging topic relevant for quantum information science and other nanophotonic applications. We investigate the coupling between a hybrid system of colloidal quantum dots and propagating modes of a silicon nitride waveguide system. We furthermore explore the local density of optical states of the system by using a scanning probe technique and find that the quantum dots couple significantly to the photonic circuit. Our results indicate that a scalable slot-waveguide might serve as a promising platform in future developments of integrated quantum circuitry.

  • Users may download and print one copy of any publication from the public portal for the purpose of private study or research

  • In this article we explore an approach to emitterwaveguide interaction based on the coupling of colloidal quantum dots to modes supported by two closely spaced Silicon Nitride (SiN) waveguides

  • Since the density of emitters along the waveguide was large, we could not conclude from the acquired measurements whether a change in lifetime is due to coupling to the propagating modes or due to the high density of colloidal quantum dots [21,22,23]
