✦ Synopsis

Using frequency-dependent admittance spectroscopy, the dynamics characteristics of tunneling into charge-tunable silicon quantum dots (Si-QDs) with a SiO 2 /Si-QDs/SiO 2 /Sisubstrate structure are investigated. Two resonance peaks, both for capacitance and conductance in the inversion region, are observed at room temperature, being attributed to the direct tunneling between the conductance band of Si-substrate and the lowest two electronic state levels of the Si-QD. Moreover, the Coulomb charging energy of the dots is extracted from the experimental results.

We present results on spectrally resolved photo-resistance studies of optically induced charge storage effects in self-organized InAs quantum dots (QDs). The stored charge can be detected and erased electrically. Our results show that spectrally resolved optical QD charging provides information on c
