β¦ Synopsis
The optical transitions of the wetting layers in two-fold self-assembled InAs=GaAs quantum dot samples are studied as a function of GaAs spacer thickness by various methods. The absorption related studies by photore ectance and selective photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy reveal already for thick barriers, for which coupling e ects can be excluded, two energetically separated heavy-hole transitions. This splitting indicates the formation of two wetting layers during growth with a 10% di erence in width and re ects strain ΓΏeld interaction between the island layers. Thin spacer layer samples show in addition the expected wetting layer coupling as conΓΏrmed by subband calculations.

We report the effects of accumulated strain by stacking on the surface and optical properties of stacked 1.3 mm InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) structures grown by MOCVD. It is found that the surface of the stacked QD structures becomes more and more undulated with stacking, due to the increased strain i
## Abstract We present the results of a comprehensive study carried out on morphological, structural and optical properties of InAs/GaAs quantum dot structures grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy. InAs quantum dots were deposited at low growth rate and high growth temperature and were capped with InGaA
This study investigates the feasibility of growing high quality columnar InAs/GaAsSb quantum dots (QDs) on a GaAs (1 0 0) substrate using a molecular beam epitaxial system. Structural and photoluminescence (PL) studies are conducted on vertically aligned, ten-period InAs quantum dot (QD) stacks with
