Strain distribution in GaN/AlN quantum-dot superlattices
The two-dimensional strain distribution in a GaN/AlN quantum-dot QD superlattice is measured from high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images using the geometrical phase analysis. The results are compared to elastic theoretical calculations using a combination of Fourier transform and Green’s function techniques. The GaN/AlN system appears to be a model system for a comparison betwe...
متن کاملSuperconductivity in quantum-dot superlattices composed of quantum wire networks
Based on calculations using the local density approximation, we propose quantum wire networks with square and plaquette type lattice structures that form quantum dot superlattices. These artificial structures are well described by the Hubbard model. Numerical analysis reveals a superconducting ground state with transition temperatures Tc of up to 90 mK for the plaquette, which is more than doub...
متن کاملOptical phonons in self-assembled Ge quantum dot superlattices: Strain relaxation effects
We present Raman scattering by optical phonons in self-assembled Ge quantum dot superlattices grown by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy. The Ge quantum dots are vertically correlated and have different average sizes and dot morphologies. The GeGe optical phonon frequency was mainly caused by strain relaxation effects. Experimentally observed GeGe optical phonon modes were compared with calcu...
متن کاملThe effect of plastic strain relaxation on the morphology of Ge quantum dot superlattices
A series of Ge quantum dot superlattices were prepared to study the relationship of the dot morphology evolution with the number of layers. Strain relaxation was observed in thicker films and the dots transited from broad size distribution to size equalization and eventually to broad size distribution again as a result of the generation of threading dislocations in the quantum dot superlattice ...
متن کاملEnhanced thermopower in PbSe nanocrystal quantum dot superlattices.
We examine the effect of strong three-dimensional quantum confinement on the thermopower and electrical conductivity of PbSe nanocrystal superlattices. We show that for comparable carrier concentrations PbSe nanocrystal superlattices exhibit a substantial thermopower enhancement of several hundred microvolts per Kelvin relative to bulk PbSe. We also find that thermopower increases monotonically...
