Abstract
Optical transitions in InAs∕InP quantum dot structures are studied and interpreted in terms of heavy- (hh) and light-hole (lh) excitons originating in InAs valence band. Appearance of a step-like absorption and two activation energies in photoluminescence spectra of quantum dots under temperature elevation is described as a transition from the excitonic states to the two-dimensional-like states realized in the InAs∕InP quantum dots. A mixture of hh and lh states determines the anisotropy of the transmission spectra and may result in rotation of the polarization plane for light transmitted through the InAs∕InP quantum dot system.
