Abstract

Photoluminescence measurements were carried out to investigate the origin of long wavelength emissions (∼1.6μm at room temperature) observed from wafers with InAs quantum dots capped with GaAsSb layers. For wafers with high Sb content (22% and 26%) photoluminescence peak energies were found to be linearly proportional to third root of optical excitation power, a characteristic of emission due to a type-II band alignment. This work therefore presents unambiguous evidence that the long wavelength emission of the wafers comes from type-II band alignment between the InAs quantum dots and the GaAsSb capping layers.
