Abstract
We investigate the exciton dynamics in a current-injected single InAs quantum dot (QD) which emits 1.55μm photons. Photon antibunching behavior is observed using a single electroluminescence line of a single QD. The radiative lifetime of this line determined by time-resolved measurement is 1.59ns. The single exciton recombination time agrees with the lifetime calculated with an eight-band kp model. We examine a high drive rate operation of the device by changing the delay time between two electrical pulses. These results demonstrate that our device has the potential to achieve telecommunication band subgigahertz single-photon emission with electrical pulses.
