摘要
Self-assembled In0.60Ga0.40As quantum dots (QD's) have been studied by single dot magnetophotoluminescence spectroscopy (B less than or equal to 8 T). At B = 0 a splitting of the exciton (X) emission is observed which we ascribe to an asymmetry of the confinement potential. With increasing B the emission splits into a quadruplet corresponding to the m = +/-2 and +/-1 X states, which originates from a reduction of the cubic symmetry of the QD's. From the spectroscopic data we obtain values for the electron (e) and hole (h) g factors. We also determine the X singlet-triplet splitting which is found to be enhanced over bulk values by about an order of magnitude due to the increase of the e-h overlap in the QD's.
