AbstractWe have investigated the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth of buried InAs quantum dots on GaAs (001) surface, as a function of deposition temperature, by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photoluminescence (PL). We found that the dot growth at low temperature is controlled by diffusion-limited aggregation. As the growth temperature increases, this growth mode is modified by misfit strain, resulting in a narrowing of the size distribution. However, we did not find any evidence for a thermodynamically optimized size. In addition, we found that the optical properties of the quantum dots does not correlate directly with the geometric size of the quantum dots, indicating a complex internal structure for quantum dots grown at high growth temperature.

InAs quantum dots (QDs) have been grown by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy on different InxGa1-xAs (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.3) to investigate the effect of In-mole-fraction and thickness of InGaAs insertion layer (IL) on the structural and optical properties of the QDs. The density of QDs directly grown on GaAs is 1×1010 cm-2, and increase to 1.4-1.8×1010 cm-2 on InGaAs layers which depend on the In-mole-fraction and thickness of InGaAs layers. The effects of In-mole-fraction and thickness of InGaAs insertion layer on optical properties of the QDs are studied by photoluminescence (PL). The FWHM of PL spectrum corresponds to the size distribution of the QDs.

AbstractEpitaxially grown self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) have found applications in optoelectronics. Efforts are being made to obtain efficient quantum-dot lasers operating at longer telecommunication wavelengths, specifically 1.3 μm and 1.55 μm. This requires narrow emission linewidth from the quantum dots at these wavelengths. In InAs/GaAs single layer quantum dot (SQD) structure, higher InAs monolayer coverage for the QDs gives rise to larger dots emitting at longer wavelengths but results in inhomogeneous dot-size distribution. The bilayer quantum dot (BQD) can be used as an alternative to SQDs, which can emit at longer wavelengths (1.229 μm at 8 K) with significantly narrow linewidth (∼16.7 meV). Here, we compare the properties of single layer and bilayer quantum dots grown with higher InAs monolayer coverage. In the BQD structure, only the top QD layer is covered with increased (3.2 ML) InAs monolayer coverage. The emission line width of our BQD sample is found to be insensitive towards post growth treatments.
