Abstract
The optical characteristics of vertical cylindrical micropillars with AlGaAs distributed Bragg reflectors and InAs/GaAs quantum dots, which are designed for the fabrication of single-photon sources, have been studied. The effect of parameters such as the inclination angle of sidewalls, partial oxidation of AlGaAs layers, and deviation of quantum dots from the central axis of a micropillar on the Purcell factor and the radiation extraction efficiency has been numerically simulated by the finite-difference time-domain method. The allowable ranges of the listed parameters have been determined for cylindrical vertical 920-nm micropillars. The comparison of the calculations performed with the refined refractive indices of the used materials at cryogenic temperatures with the measured characteristics of the fabricated micropillar structures has confirmed the adequacy of the used models.
