Engineering vertically aligned InAs/GaAs quantum dot structures via anion exchange
نویسندگان
چکیده
P/As anion exchange is exploited to modify stacked InAs/GaAs quantum dot structures grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). It is shown that the vertical alignment and size uniformity can be remarkably improved via P/As anion exchange. This, therefore, demonstrates a promising approach to tuning the quantum dot morphologies and structures, and hence, the electronic and optoelectronic properties. q 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Effect of dissimilar anion annealing on structures of InAs/ GaAs quantum dots
In this paper, we report microstructural characterization of InAs/GaAs quantum dots grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The InAs islands were annealed in a range of temperatures under Pa flux. Prior to annealing, it is shown that the InAs islands are mainly lens-shaped, mostly vertically self-aligned and coherent to GaAs (1 0 0) substrate. Relaxation by misfit dislocations is occasionally found. A...
متن کاملWavelength and polarization variations of InAs/GaAs quantum dots emission at liquid Helium temperature via microphotoluminescence spectroscopy
In this paper, we investigate variation of the wavelength, intensity and polarization of the self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dots emission by microphotoluminescence spectroscopy at the liquid helium temperature. The microcavity wafer sample is grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and chemically etched into the micropillar structure (with elliptical cross section - long and short axis 2µm×1.5µ...

متن کاملOptical characterisation of MOVPE grown vertically correlated InAs/GaAs quantum dots
Structures with self-organised InAs quantum dots in a GaAs matrix were grown by the low-pressure metal-organic vapour phase epitaxy (LP-MOVPE) technique. Photoluminescence in combination with photomodulated reflectance spectroscopy were used as the main characterisation methods for the growth optimisation. Results show that photoreflectance spectroscopy is an excellent tool for characterisation...
متن کاملInterplay Effect of Excitation and Temperature on Carrier Transfer between Vertically Aligned InAs/GaAs Quantum Dot Pairs
Carrier transfer in vertically-coupled InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) pairs is investigated. Photoluminescence (PL) and PL excitation spectra measured at low temperature indicate that the PL peak intensity ratio between the emission from the two sets of QDs—i.e., the relative population of carriers between the two layers of QDs—changes with increasing excitation intensity. Temperature-dependent PL ...
