Photoluminescence of patterned arrays of vertically stacked InAs/GaAs quantum dots

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We report on photoluminescence measurements of vertically stacked InAs/GaAs quantum dots grown by molecular-beam epitaxy on focused ion beam patterned hole arrays with varying array spacing. Quantum dot emission at 1.24 eV was observed only on patterned regions, demonstrating preferential nucleation of optically-active dots at desired locations and below the critical thickness for dot formation at these growth conditions. Photoluminescence measurements as a function of varying focused ion beam irradiated hole spacing showed that the quantum dot emission intensity increased with decreasing array periodicity, consistent with increasing dot density.
