摘要
We have examined the optical properties of highly ordered arrays of nanosized InGaAs quantum dots (QDs) with cathodoluminescence (CL) techniques. The InGaAs QDs were formed on GaAs (001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxial growth using alumina nanochannel array (NCA) templates. The behavior of the CL luminescence was studied by temperature and electron beam scan area dependence. The activation energy of the InGaAs QD luminescence was determined to be 43.1 meV. The CL results indicate that the InGaAs QDs are rather uniform with identical electronic structure.
