摘要
InAs self-organized quantum dots (QDs) and quantum dashes (QDHs) grown on GaAs (100), (211)B and (311)B substrates by molecular beam epitaxy at different growth temperatures (T-s) have been investigated. QDs were observed after deposition of 2ML(100) (or 4ML(311)) of InAs on GaAs (100) (or (311)B) at T-s ranging from 450 degrees C to 530 degrees C, The average density decreases and the average size increases monotonically with increasing T-s. QDs with bimodal size distribution were formed when 6ML(211) of InAs was deposited on GaAs (211)B at lower T-s. When the same amount of InAs was deposited at higher T-s, however, QDHs were observed. The photoluminescence intensity of the QDs and QDHs showed similar temperature dependence, whereas the excitation density dependence showed quite different behaviors. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
