Abstract
Quantum dots (QDs) acting as single-photon emitters in the blue-green range are fabricated and characterized at cryogenic temperature. They consist in CdSe dots inserted in (Zn,Mg)Se nanowires with a thick shell. Photoluminescence spectra, decay curves, and autocorrelation functions were measured under nonresonant continuous-wave and pulsed excitation. An analytical approach is applied simultaneously to the decay curves and correlation functions. It allows a quantitative description of how these two quantities are affected by the exciton rise due to biexciton feeding, the bright exciton decay, the effect of the dark exciton, and the reexcitation between two laser pulses. Linewidths at our limit of resolution (200 $\ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{eV}$) are recorded. The reported correlation counts vary from a full control by reexcitation from traps, to a small contribution of reexcitation by mobile carriers or other QDs, as low as 5%.
