Abstract

Single photon sources are fundamental building blocks for quantum communication and computing technologies. In this work, we present a device geometry consisting of gold pillars embedded in a van der Waals heterostructure of graphene, hexagonal boron nitride, and tungsten diselenide. The gold pillars serve to both generate strain and inject charge carriers, allowing us to simultaneously demonstrate the positional control and electrical pumping of a single photon emitter. Moreover, increasing the thickness of the hexagonal boron nitride tunnel barriers restricts electroluminescence but enables electrical control of the emission energy of the site-controlled single photon emitters, with measured energy shifts reaching 40 meV.
