Abstract

Self-assembled InAs nanostructures on (0 0 1)InP substrate have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and evaluated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photoluminescence (PL). It is found that the morphologies of InAs nanostructures depend strongly on the underlying alloy. Through introducing a lattice-matched underlying InAlGaAs layer on InAlAs buffer layer, the InAs quantum dots (QDs) can be much more uniform in size and great improvement in PL properties can be attained at the same time. In particular, 1.55 μm luminescence at room temperature (RT) can be realized in InAs QDs deposited on (0 0 1)InP substrate with underlying InAlGaAs layer.
