✦ Synopsis

A low-temperature micro-photoluminescence (m-PL) investigation of InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) exposed to a lateral external electric field is reported. It is demonstrated that the QDs PL signal could be increased several times by altering the external and/or the internal electric field. The internal field in the vicinity of the dots could be altered by means of an additional infra-red laser. We propose a model, which is based on an essentially faster lateral transport of the charge carriers achieved in an external electric field. Consequently, also the capture probability into the dots and subsequently the dot luminescence is also enhanced. The results obtained suggest that the lateral electric fields play a major role for the dot luminescence intensity measured in our experiment.

In this paper, we present the growth and photoluminescence (PL) results of InAs quantum dots (QDs) on a p-type porous GaAs (001) substrate. It has been shown that critical layer thickness of InAs overgrowth on porous GaAs has been enhanced compared to that deposited on nominal GaAs. Using porous GaA

InAs quantum dots (QDs) on GaAs (0 0 1) substrates were grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) using two growth temperatures. Photoluminescence (PL) pump power dependence measurements at low temperature were carried out for sample grown at higher temperature (520 8C). With increasing excitation densi
