Multi-quantum-dot systems provide a robust platform for realizing quantum registers and multi-photon resources such as 2D cluster states. Here, we introduce a tunneling-based excitation scheme in a system of two quantum dots. We first create a spatially indirect exciton delocalized across two dots. Subsequently, electron tunneling converts it into a spatially direct exciton, enabling a localized radiative recombination pathway and hence direct emission. To quantify how inter-dot separation shapes these dynamics, we grow a series of samples comprising two InGaAs quantum dots (growth times 2 s and 5 s) with varying spacings, embedded in AlGaAs nanowires. Finally, we assess whether this platform–scheme combination can outperform established excitation approaches, particularly (a) resonant excitation, which can lead to fluorescence loss, and (b) the SUPER scheme, which typically demands higher excitation powers.
