Abstract

The photostability of a colloidal single photon emitter in near-infrared regime at room temperature is investigated. The fluorescence lifetime, blinking phenomenon, and anti-bunching effect of a single CdTeSe/ZnS quantum dot with an emission wavelength of 800 nm at room temperature are studied. The second-order correlation function at zero delay time is much smaller than 0.1, which proves that the emission from single quantum dots at 800 nm is a highly pure single-photon source. The effects of the irradiation duration on the fluorescence from single quantum dots are analyzed. The experimental results can be explained by a recombination model including a multi-nonradiative recombination center model and a multi-charged model.
