In this thesis, we study and optically characterize a device with QDs embedded in micro-cavities. By fitting the semi-classical model which describes QD-cavity interaction, we conclude that we observe trion transitions. A study of the second-order correlation function of one transition shows that it works as efficient single-photon source.Show less
