چکیده

In the past 20 years the semiconductor laser has become a key device in optical electronics because of its pure output spectrum and high quantum efficiency. As the capabilities of laser diodes have grown, so has the range of applications contemplated for them. The laser performance successes gained using quantum wells in optoelectronic devices can be extended by adopting quantum dot structures. This paper is intended to describe the laser applications of self-assembled quantum dots. q 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Self-assembled InAs quantum dot formation on GaAs ring-like nanostructure templates

The evolution of InAs quantum dot (QD) formation is studied on GaAs ring-like nanostructures fabricated by droplet homo-epitaxy. This growth mode, exclusively performed by a hybrid approach of droplet homo-epitaxy and Stransky-Krastanor (S-K) based QD self-assembly, enables one to form new QD morphologies that may find use in optoelectronic applications. Increased deposition of InAs on the GaAs...

Ultrafast Spectroscopy of QD Structures for Mid-Infrared Applications

The capture and relaxation of carriers in semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) has attracted much attention during the last decade, since a profound understanding of these processes is essential for the development of novel optoelectronic devices. A drastic slow-down of the relaxation compared to higher-dimensional structures has been predicted because of the so-called phonon bottleneck effect. How...

Wavelength 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...

Integrated quantum optical networks based on quantum dots and photonic crystals

Single solid-state optical emitters have quantum mechanical properties that make them suitable for applications in information processing and sensing. Most of these quantum technologies rely on the capability to integrate the emitters in reliable solid-state optical networks. In this paper, we present integrated devices based on GaAs photonic crystals and InAs self-assembled quantum dots. These...
