Abstract
Nanosized GaN dot structures were fabricated on Si(111) substrate by droplet epitaxy using an rf plasma MBE system. The size and density of the GaN dots could be controlled by changing the amount of Ga supplied. By reducing the Ga supply, a maximum dot density of 3.3 Γ 10^11^ cm^β2^ was realized. Photoluminescence measurements at room temperature showed band edge emission with negligible yellow luminescence, which indicates a good optical property of GaN dots grown by this technique.

The fabrication of submicrometer GaAs islands directly on Si substrates by droplet epitaxy is presented. Islands parameters, like density and size, are fully controlled through growth temperature and Ga coverage. The process is fully scalable and at low thermal budget, making these islands good cand
