Quantum Dot Moir\'e from Crossed MoS2 Nanoribbons

Twisted atomically thin layers have attracted much attention for Moir\'e potential and correlated quantum phenomena. However, existing Moir\'e superlattices have largely been limited to extensive wavefunction without lateral confinement. Here we introduce a new platform where 1D nanoribbons of 2D MoS2 grown by vapor deposition can be easily superposed at various angles from stacking and transferring, to form Moir\'e quantum dots at their intersections with unique exciton physics. Angle-dependent Moir\'e intersections show enhanced exciton emission at commensurate angle 22 deg, which demonstrates faster relaxation at the cryogenic temperature. A size-dependent study further exhibits a reduced exciton energy and soften out-of-plane interlayer coupling for smaller Moir\'e areas. Our results reveal exciton physics turnability via precise overlapping of 1D nanoribbons.

Overcoming the surface paradox: Buried perovskite quantum dots in wide-bandgap perovskite thin films

Colloidal perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) are an exciting platform for on-demand quantum, and classical optoelectronic and photonic devices. However, their potential success is limited by the extreme sensitivity and low stability arising from their weak intrinsic lattice bond energy and complex surface chemistry. Here we report a novel platform of buried perovskite quantum dots (b-PQDs) in a three-dimensional perovskite thin-film, fabricated using one-step, flash annealing, which overcomes surface related instabilities in colloidal perovskite dots. The b-PQDs demonstrate ultrabright and stable single-dot emission, with resolution-limited linewidths below 130 μeV, photon-antibunching (g^2(0)=0.1), no blinking, suppressed spectral diffusion, and high photon count rates of 10^4/s, consistent with unity quantum yield. The ultrasharp linewidth resolves exciton fine-structures (dark and triplet excitons) and their dynamics under a magnetic field. Additionally, b-PQDs can be electrically driven to emit single photons with 1 meV linewidth and photon-antibunching (g^2(0)=0.4). These results pave the way for on-chip, low-cost single-photon sources for next generation quantum optical communication and sensing.
