Abstract

ABSTRACTExperimental and theoretical investigations of high-energy shifts of single InAs, InGaAs, InAlAs and InP quantum dot (QD) emission lines induced by contact pressure exerted by a near-field optical fiber tip are reported. “Pressure” coefficients of 0.65–3.5 meV/nm have been measured for ground state emission lines in agreement with numerical calculations. We show that the observed increase of the tip-induced energy shift with increasing aperture diameter is caused by a decrease of the uniaxial strain component. We also report the effect of emission instability of single QD emission intensity under tip-induced pressure.
