Abstract

The authors present a theoretical study of the ground state optical transition matrix element in quantum dots (QDs) with a dilute amount of nitrogen. They have investigated the interplay between the nitrogen to the conduction band mixing and piezoelectric field on the optical matrix element. With a reduced amount of indium and an increased amount of nitrogen in the QD, the optical matrix element becomes on the average larger and less sensitive to the variation of both the QD shape and size than is the case of an InNAs QD. The optical characteristics at room temperature and 1.5μm wavelength are discussed.
