Abstract
Strain-induced Ga 0.8 In 0.2 N y As 1-y quantum dots on GaAs were fabricated by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy. Nitrogen concentration ywas varied between 0% and 1.3%. The effect of nitrogen concentration on the optical properties of the quantum dots was investigated by continuous-wave and time-resolved photoluminescence measurements. Carrier localization in the states below the band edge of the nitrogen-containing quantum well has been observed. These states are thought to originate from the variation of the quantum well width or from the fluctuation of the composition. Such variations have been identified in GaInNAs quantum wells on GaAs without stressor islands. The measured energy difference of the quantum well and quantum dot ground-state peak energies increase with increasing temperature.
