Self-assembled InAs quantum dot formation on GaAs ring-like nanostructure templates
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 ring first produced a QD in the hole followed by QDs around the GaAs ring and on the GaAs (100) surface. This behavior indicates that the QDs prefer to nucleate at locations of high monolayer (ML) step density.

The effects of growth interruption (GI) on self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) heterostructures have been presented. Samples with different GI times were grown on GaAs substrate by metal-organic chemical vapour epitaxy. Photoreflectance and temperature dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectra from the samples were measured. It is found that increasing GI time during InAs QDs formation ind...
