چکیده
We present a fabrication method to produce site-controlled and regularly spaced InAs/GaAs quantum dots for applications in quantum optical information devices. The high selectivity of our epitaxial regrowth procedure can be used to allocate the quantum dots only in positions predefined by ex-situ local oxidation atomic force nanolithography. The quantum dots obtained following this fabrication process present a high optical quality which we have evaluated by microphotoluminescence and photon correlation experiments.

The influence of temperature on the photoluminescence properties of single InAs quantum dots grown on patterned GaAs
We report the temperature-dependent photoluminescence of single site-controlled and self-assembled InAs quantum dots. We have used nanoimprint lithography for patterning GaAs(100) templates and molecular beam epitaxy for quantum dot deposition. We show that the influence of the temperature on the photoluminescence properties is similar for quantum dots on etched nanopatterns and randomly positi...
متن کاملMolecular-beam epitaxy growth of site-controlled InAs/GaAs quantum dots defined by soft photocurable nanoimprint lithography
Molecular-beam epitaxy grown InAs site-controlled quantum dots SCQDs have been demonstrated on GaAs substrates patterned with a dense array of 100 nm square nanopores in 200 nm pitch by soft photocurable nanoimprint lithography. The effects of different growth parameters, including GaAs buffer-layer thickness and arsenic overpressure, on SCQD formation are investigated. The buffer-layer thickne...
متن کاملSite-Control of InAs/GaAs Quantum Dots with Indium-Assisted Deoxidation
Site-controlled epitaxial growth of InAs quantum dots on GaAs substrates patterned with periodic nanohole arrays relies on the deterministic nucleation of dots into the holes. In the ideal situation, each hole should be occupied exactly by one single dot, with no nucleation onto planar areas. However, the single-dot occupancy per hole is often made difficult by the fact that lithographically-de...
متن کاملThe Role of Groove Periodicity in the Formation of Site-Controlled Quantum Dot Chains
Structural and optical properties of InAs quantum dot (QD) chains formed in etched GaAs grooves having different periods from 200 to 2000 nm in [010] orientation are reported. The site-controlled QDs were fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy on soft UV-nanoimprint lithography-patterned GaAs(001) surfaces. Increasing the groove periods decreases the overall QD density but increases the QD size a...

The optical properties of In0.8Ga0.2As self-assembled quantum dots (SAQDs) grown on GaAs wire structures formed by utilizing SiO2-patterned exact and 5°-off (001) GaAs substrates have been studied with micro-photoluminescence (μ-PL). Single PL peak was occurred for In0.8Ga0.2As SAQDs grown on SiO2-patterned exact (001) GaAs, whereas double PL peaks were showed for SAQDs grown on 5°-off (001) Ga...
