摘要：

Asymmetrical horizontal interdot coupling was demonstrated to exist in a system of a single plane of self-assembled CdTe/ZnTe quantum dots. Photoluminescence excitation (PLE), second-order photon correlation, and optical orientation were used as main experimental tools. Each individual absorbing dot was identified by a sharp PLE resonance assigned to the neutral exciton transition, while the corresponding emission contained several excitonic transitions of different charge states in another single quantum dot different from the absorbing one. Energy and spin transfer dynamics were studied. A high efficiency of spin transfer was found from the optical orientation in a vertical magnetic field (70%) as well as without the magnetic field (40%), in spite of a significant anisotropic exchange splitting of the absorbing dot. Coherent mechanism of linear-to-circular polarization conversion was identified, with an efficiency (43%) close to the theoretical limit of 50%.
