摘要
We present second-order photon correlation measurements on single InP/(Ga,In)P quantum dots as a function of temperature. Low background emission allows to obtain antibunching minima g((2))(0) below 0.25 up to 45 K. The antibunching time tau(R) increases or decreases with temperature depending on the quantum-dot size. The two trends result from a competition between hole thermal excitation and dark-to-bright exciton transitions. The former prevails in smaller dots showing increasing tau(R) with temperature, while the latter dominates in larger quantum dots showing decreasing tau(R) with temperature.
