We have characterized self-assembled InAs quantum dots grown on the top of a single InGaAs/GaAs quantum well (QD's:QW) by measuring photoluminescence (PL) spectra as an effective technique. We have found that the linewidths of the PL peaks for the QD's:QW are narrower than that for the InAs quantum

Abstract
Optical properties of selfβorganized QDs grown on thick metamorphic InGaAs layers with different In composition are studied. The dots are formed by an overgrowth of original InAs islands with thin InGaAs or InAlAs layers. Room temperature photoluminescence at 1.55 Β΅m is demonstrated for the sample with 27% In composition in the matrix. The overgrowth with InAlAs layers permits to eliminate the wetting layer states and increase energy separation between QD ground and excited states. (Β© 2006 WILEYβVCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
