We demonstrate electrically pumped single photon emission up to 150K from a single InGaN quantum dot embedded in a GaN nanowire junction diode. The InGaN dot-in-nanowire p-n junctions were grown on silicon by molecular beam epitaxy. The exciton electroluminescence from individual dot-in-nanowires is in the green spectral range (lambda similar to 520 nm) and is detectable up to 150 K. Second order autocorrelation measurements performed at the exciton energy at an ambient temperature of 125K show a background corrected g((2))(0) equal to 0.35, indicating dominant single photon emission. The steady state nanowire temperature under these conditions is estimated to be 150K due to Joule heating induced by the large nanowire series resistance. Time resolved photoluminescence measurements yield an exciton radiative lifetime of 1.1 ns. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
