Quantum Emission in WSe<sub>2</sub> Monolayer Transferred onto InP Nanowires
We present an experimental study on strain-induced photoluminescence enhancement in a WSe2 monolayer transferred onto a substrate with nanowires dispersed horizontally. Bright and spectrally narrow emission lines from the strained monolayer are observed. Furthermore, second-order correlation measurements confirm the presence of quantum light emission, with an excellent g<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup>(0) value of 0.049±0.022, underscoring the potential of this approach for deterministic generation of single-photon emitters. These results highlight the utility of strain engineering via nanowires for scalable quantum photonic applications.
