摘要: Abstract We report the advantages of using InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) having In x Ga 1 - As asymmetric strain-released layers (ASRL) over conventional QDs in long wavelength operation. Atomic layer molecular beam epitaxy was used to enhance uniformity InAs an well structure. The red shift as large ∼ 50 nm could be achieved by varying thickness and indium composition ASRL. observed longest 1288 nm produced QD with ASRL photoluminescence (PL). However, stimulated emission gave 1206 nm, blue-shifted 82 from PL peak at room temperature, which is attributed optical transitions via higher sub-band levels QDs.
