Semiconductor quantum dots are arguably the most promising platform for future quantum technologies. Due to the confinement of charge carriers, a variety of photon states can be generated, making them a highly adaptable quantum platform. While the most common optical excitation methods target the so-called bright excitons or biexcitons for the generation of single or entangled photon states, quantum dots also accommodate optically dark excitons, which are not directly accessible via optical excitation methods. The dark exciton states exhibit significantly slower decay rates compared to their bright counterparts, making them potential candidates for application in quantum information protocols that demand the control of quantum coherence over long time scales [1]. In this work, we generate the dark exciton states in a single GaAs/AlGaAs quantum dot emitting ~ 800 nm under a magneto-optical excitation (in-plane magnetic field ~ 3.2 T), and characterize the emission energy splitting, lifetime variation and polarization response.
