摘要
We report the growth of high-uniformity large coherent InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) by metal organic chemical vapor deposition, with density between 10(6) and 10(10) cm(-2), emission close to 1.4 mu m at room temperature with only GaAs capping, and temperature-independent peak linewidth as low as 14 meV. It is shown that the QD density can be controlled by the InAs coverage, while the QD size remains remarkably constant. The observed decrease of the emission wavelength with coverage is explained by a density-dependent alloying. Microphotoluminescence measurement was performed on bare samples at 5 K and single dot emission was observed. (c) 2008 American Institute of Physics.
