Abstract

Coupled three-dimensional GeSi quantum dot crystals (QDCs) are realized by multilayer growth of quantum dots (QDs) on patterned SOI (001) substrates. Photoluminescence spectra of these QDCs show non-phonon (NP) recombination and its transverse-optical (TO) phonon replica of excitons in QDs. With increasing excitation power, peak energies of both the NP and TO peaks remain nearly constant and the width of the TO peak decreases. These anomalous features of the PL peaks are attributed to miniband formation due to strong coupling of the holes and the emergence of quasioptical phonon modes due to periodic scatters in ordered GeSi QDs.
