Optical switching using quantum dot-micropillar cavities

In this thesis we use optical spectroscopy to investigate III/V semiconductor quantum dot-micropillar cavities. The aim is to identify a pillar containing a single quantum dot that can be used to develop an optical switch, an important component within a photonic network. We will investigate how to...
