Abstract
The localization energies, capture cross sections, and storage times of holes in GaSb quantum dots (QDs) are measured for three GaSb/GaAs QD ensembles with different QD sizes. The structural properties, such as height and diameter, are determined by atomic force microscopy, while the electronic properties are measured using deep-level transient spectroscopy. The various QDs exhibit varying hole localization energies corresponding to their size. The maximum localization energy of 800 (±50) meV is achieved by using additional Al0.3Ga0.7As barriers. Based on an extrapolation, alternative material systems are proposed to further increase the localization energy and carrier storage time of QDs.
