- Abstract
- Reflection high-energy electron diffraction, atomic force microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and double-crystal X-ray curves showed that high-quality InAs quantum dot (QD) arrays inserted into GaAs barriers were embedded in an Al0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs heterostructure. The temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the InAs/GaAs QDs showed that the exciton peak corresponding interband transition from the ground electronic subband to the ground heavy-hole subband (E-1-HH1) was dominantly observed and that the peak position and the full width at half maximum corresponding to the interband transitions of the PL spectrum were dependent on the temperature. The activation energy of the electrons confined in the InAs/GaAs QDs was 115 meV. The electronic subband energy and the energy wave function of the Al0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs heterostructures were calculated by using a self-consistent method. The electronic subband energies in the InAs/GaAs QDs were calculated by using a three-dimensional spatial plane wave method, and the value of the calculated (E-1-HH1) transition in the InAs/GaAs QDs was in reasonable agreement with that obtained from the PL measurement.
