摘要
Vertically stacked layer structure is useful for controlling the size distribution of quantum dots. The dependence of the size distribution of quantum dots on the stacking numbers is theoretically and experimentally investigated. We show that the size distribution of quantum dots decreases with increasing the stacking number, and it occurs drastically when the stacking number is changed from 1 to 2. The quantitative analysis on in-plane strain energy distribution is also performed for the explanation.
