چکیده
A self-organized In0.53Ga0.47As/(In0.53Ga0.47As)2(In0.44Al0.56As)2 quantum wire (QWR) laser was grown on a (775)B InP substrate by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Well lattice-matched and flat cladding layers were grown at a rather high temperature (595 C). Lateral confinement potential was induced by a nano-meter scale interface corrugation of InGaAs/(InGaAs)2(InAlAs)2 with an amplitude of 2 nm and a period of 40 nm. A 50 μm x 500 μm stripe-contact QWR laser with uncoated cleaved mirrors oscillated with a threshold current density (Jth) of 1.2 kA/cm and a lasing wavelength of 1370 nm at 250 K under pulsed current condition.

InAs quantum dots grown on InAlAs lattice-matched to (0 0 1) InP substrates by molecular beam epitaxy are investigated by double-crystal X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence and transmission electron microscopy. The growth process is found to follow the Stranski—Krastanow growth mode. The islands formation is confirmed by the TEM measurements. Strong radiative recombination from the quantum dot...

Self-assembled quantum dots and wires were obtained in the InxGa1-xAs/GaAs and InAs/In0.52Al0.48As/InP systems, respectively, using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Uniformity in the distribution, density, and spatial ordering of the nanostructures can be controlled to some extent by adjusting and optimizing the MBE growth parameters. In addition, some interesting observation on the InAs wire alig...
متن کاملDirect formation of InAs quantum dots grown on InP „001... by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy
We have developed a growth process that leads to the direct formation of self-assembled InAs quantum dots on InP 001 by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy avoiding the previous formation of quantum wires usually obtained by this technique. The process consists of a periodically alternated deposition of In and As correlated with InAs 4 2 ↔ 2 4 surface reconstruction changes. Based on the result...
