摘要
We compare the optical properties of ensembles of polar (0001) and semipolar (11- 22) Al0.5Ga0.5N/GaN quantum dots grown by molecular beam epitaxy The polar quantum dot emission shows a huge Stark shift. Using dot height distributions measured by transmission electron microscopy, a simple model allows accounting for the PL energies and lineshapes, and to the screening of the Stark field. The semipolar quantum dots emission show a much weaker Stark effect. High room temperature quantum yields attest the efficiency of 3D-confinement.
