Abstract
In this work we report the optical and microscopic properties of self-organized InAs/GaAs quantum dots grown by molecular beam epitaxy on (1 0 0) oriented GaAs substrates. A distinctive double-peak feature of the PL spectra from quantum dots has been observed, and a bimodal distribution of dot sizes has also been confirmed by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) image for uncapped sample. The power-dependent photoluminescence (PL) study demonstrates that the distinctive PL emission peaks are associated with the ground-state emission of islands in different size branches. The temperature-dependent PL study shows that the PL quenching temperature for different dot families is different. It is shown that the coupling between quantum dots plays a key role in unusual temperature dependence of QD photoluminescence. In addition, we have tuned the emission wavelength of InAs QDs to 1.3 μm at room temperature.
