摘要:
A technology is reported for the fabrication of buried InGaAs/GaAs quantum wires. For the pattern transfer of the nanometer structures a sensitive high resolution negative e-beam resist is used as a direct etch mask. The essential step of the approach is a selective wet etch process by which only the top barrier layer of a quantum well structure is removed between masked regions. Due to the high energy barrier of the etched surface quantum wells compared to the masked regions a lateral potential well is formed. Investigating the width dependence of the photoluminescence efficiency a high intensity is found, even for narrow wires and a significant shift of the emission to high energies for the smallest wires with widths of 35 nm.
