Abstract

Vertically stacked QD growth in precision can be incorporated to develop new structures and improve the size and spatial distribution ofthe strain-induced QD ensemble. Photoluminescence (PL) ofquantum dots embedded in high potential barriers is studied as functions ofbarrier thickness, temperature, and laser excitation power. With the increase of un-doped barrier thickness, both of strengthened two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) structure and strongly localized electron wave functions can increase the carrier recombination. The optical properties of different-barrier-thickness samples exhibit different characteristics with the decreased measurement temperatures. The PL recombination characteristic of the samples with the barriers adjacent to a Si-doping GaAs layer is different from that of samples with barrier adjacent to an i-GaAs layer.
