摘要: Abstract The optical and structural properties of a single array 1.3 μm emitting quantum dots (QDs) grown by LP-MOVPE are presented after different thermal treatments (between 570°C 670°C under arsine flux during 25 min) simulating the overgrowth confinement layers for broad area lasers. photoluminescence (PL) efficiency line is not affected treatment below 620°C. Nevertheless, drastic decrease peak intensity occurs higher anneal temperature (670°C), together with an important blueshift PL spectrum (≈40 meV). modifications QDs were studied TEM, showing In/Ga intermixing treatment. A low budget (
