Abstract
Self-assembled InAs QD dot-in-a-well (DWELL) structures were grown on GaAs substrate by MBE system, and heterojunction modulation-doped field effect transistor (MODFET) was fabricated. The optical properties of the samples show that the photoluminescence of InAs/GaAs self-assembled quantum dot (SAQD) is at 1.265 μm at 300 K. The temperature-dependence of the abnormal redshift of InAs SAQD wavelength with the increasing temperature was observed, which is closely related with the inhomogeneous size distribution of the InAs quantum dot. According to the electrical measurement, high electric field current–voltage characteristic of the MODFET device were obtained. The embedded InAs QD of the samples can be regard as scattering centers to the vicinity of the channel electrons. The transport property of the electrons in GaAs channel will be modulated by the QD due to the Coulomb interaction. It has been proposed that a MODFET embedded with InAs QDs presents a novel type of field effect photon detector.
