RESUMO

The generation of photon pairs from nanoscale structures with high rates is still a challenge for the integration of quantum devices, as it suffers from parasitic signals from the substrate. In this work, we report type-0 spontaneous parametric down-conversion at 1550 nm from individual bottom-up grown zinc-blende GaAs nanowires with lengths of up to 5 µm and diameters of up to 450 nm. The nanowires were deposited on a transparent ITO substrate, and we measured a background-free coincidence rate of 0.05 Hz in a Hanbury-Brown-Twiss setup. Taking into account transmission losses, the pump fluence, and the nanowire volume, we achieved a biphoton generation of 60 GHz/Wm, which is at least 3 times higher than that of previously reported single nonlinear micro- and nanostructures. We also studied the correlations between the second-harmonic generation and the spontaneous parametric down-conversion intensities with respect to the pump polarization and in different individual nanowires.

RESUMO

Ultralong GaAs nanowires were grown by molecular beam epitaxy using the vapor-liquid-solid method. In this ultralong regime we show the existence of two features concerning the growth kinetic and the structural properties. Firstly, we observed a non-classical growth mode, where the axial growth rate is attenuated. Secondly, we observed structural defects at the surface of Wurtzite segments located at the bottom part of the nanowires. We explain these two phenomena as arising from a particular pathway of the group V species, specific to ultralong nanowires. Finally, the optical properties of such ultralong nanowires are studied by photoluminescence experiments.

RESUMO

In this work we show that the incidence angle of group-III element fluxes plays a significant role in the diffusion-controlled growth of III-V nanowires (NWs) by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). We present a thorough experimental study on the self-assisted growth of GaAs NWs by using a MBE reactor equipped with two Ga cells located at different incidence angles with respect to the surface normal of the substrate, so as to ascertain the impact of such a parameter on the NW growth kinetics. The as-obtained results show a dramatic influence of the Ga flux incidence angle on the NW length and diameter, as well as on the shape and size of the Ga droplets acting as catalysts. In order to interpret the results we developed a semi-empirical analytical model inspired by those already developed for MBE-grown Au-catalyzed GaAs NWs. Numerical simulations performed with the model allow us to reproduce thoroughly the experimental results (in terms of NW length and diameter and of droplet size and wetting angle), putting in evidence that under formally the same experimental conditions the incidence angle of the Ga flux is a key parameter which can drastically affect the growth kinetics of the NWs grown by MBE.
