Abstract
VECSELs have already been successfully used for quantum experiments based on ion and atom systems, where the main desired features are narrow linewidth, low noise, and stability. Here we are exposing the broad tuning capability of the VEXLUM VALO single-frequency laser platform for the resonant excitation of recently developed GaSb-based semiconductor quantum dots, which can provide single-photon emission in the 3rd telecom widow. The VECSEL allows direct excitation of a single quantum dot and elimination of complex charge relaxation paths in the surrounding semiconductor matrix, thus improving the charge stability of the quantum dot.
