Tailoring the Geometry of Bottom-Up Nanowires: Application to High Efficiency Single Photon Sources

For nanowire-based sources of non-classical light, the rate at which photons are generated and the ability to efficiently collect them are determined by the nanowire geometry. Using selective-area vapour-liquid-solid epitaxy, we show how it is possible to control the nanowire geometry and tailor it...
