摘要
Self-assembled cubic GaN quantum dots have been grown by plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy on cubic AIN. Atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy reveal islands of a mean height of 1.6 nm and a mean diameter of 13 nm, The influence of stacking faults on island nucleation is discussed. The quantum dots show ultraviolet photo- and cathodo-luminescence with no thermal quenching up to room temperature. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
