ABSTRACTIntegration of epitaxical and colloidal semiconductor nanostructures into hybrid structures can potentially open unprecedented functionalities and applications. We present here some results of a study of the structural and optical nature of adsorbed InAs nanocrystal quantum dots (NCQDs) on GaAs(001) substrates containing buried nanostructures, providing the first evidence of excitation transfer from NCQDs to the substrate. Results are also presented for the overgrowth of GaAs on the InAs NCQDs, addressing the all important issue of approach to removal of the chemical contamination left behind by the solvent during adsorption of the NCQDS. It is shown that high structural and optical quality buried integrated structures are feasible, thus opening a new field of investigation.

AbstractResults of studying nanocrystalline nc-Si/SiO_2 quantum dots (QDs) functionalized by short oligonucleotides show that complexes of isolated crystalline semiconductor QDs are unique objects for detecting the manifestation of new quantum confinement phenomena. It is established that narrow lines observed in high-resolution spectra of inelastic light scattering can be used for determining the characteristic time scale of vibrational excitations of separate nucleotide molecules and for studying structural-dynamic properties of fast oscillatory processes in biomacromolecules.

When the size of a semiconductor is reduced by an appropriate materials processing technique to a dimension less than about twice the radius of an exciton in the bulk crystal, the band like structure of the semiconductor gives way to discrete molecular orbital electronic states. Clusters of semiconductors in a size regime lower than 2R {where R is the exciton Bohr radius; e.g. 3 nm for CdS and 7.3 nm for CdTe) are called Quantum Dots (QD) because they confine optically excited electron- hole pairs (excitons) in all three spatial dimensions. Structures based on QD are of great interest because of fast response times and non-linearity in optical switching applications.In this paper we report the first HREM analysis of the size and structure of CdTe and CdS QD formed by precipitation from a modified borosilicate glass matrix. The glass melts were quenched by pouring on brass plates, and then annealed to relieve internal stresses. QD precipitate particles were formed during subsequent "striking" heat treatments above the glass crystallization temperature, which was determined by differential thermal analysis.
