摘要: Self-assembled InAs∕GaAs quantum dots have been grown at very low InAs growth rate in order to form sparse and large (QDs) emitting the near infrared (1300–1400nm), for application as single-photon sources. The structural optical properties of these QDs a function were systematically investigated. lowest (∼10−3ML∕s) present dot density (∼2×108dots∕cm2), high In content, good size homogeneity. Photoluminescence time-resolved photoluminescence measurements performed different powers temperatures provide information on their luminescence efficiency, recombination processes occurring low-density compared higher densities.
