    Abstract

    Nanoscale light sources operating efficiently at low powers are required for future optical interconnects. Here, we present, both theoretically and experimentally, the carrier dynamics in metal-dielectric cavity nanopillar light-emitting diodes. The nanoLEDs operate at telecommunications wavelengths, featuring tens of nanoWatt waveguide-coupled powers and GHz-range modulation bandwidths. Furthermore, an extremely low surface recombination velocity of 260 cm/s in passivated InGaAs nanopillars is reported, a result of crucial importance for the development of efficient nanoscale optoelectronic devices for nanophotonic integrated circuits.
