A quantum dot (QD) as a single photon emitter is an ideal system to study the Auger effect in a confined nanostructure. The recombination energy is transferred to a third charge carrier that leaves the dot [1], hence, the Auger effect destroys the radiative recombination of the negatively charged exciton (trion X−) - an effect, which should be minimized in future optical applications. In order to minimise the Auger recombination, we studied the effect of an applied magnetic field on the Auger recombination [2]. However, in a magnetic field, the trion transition of the QD is no longer spin degenerate, and besides the Auger recombination, the spin-flip and spin-flip Raman transitions make it difficult to determine the Auger rate. Here, we use two-color time-resolved resonance fluorescence measurements with two-color spectral analysis of the emitted single photons from the QD to distinguish between the different state transitions. In this way, spin relaxation and spin-flip Raman scattering can be neglected. This ensures that we can directly measure all important transition and tunneling rates into the quantum dot and get a high accuracy for the influence of the magnetic field on the Auger rate. [1] P.
