摘要
(GaAS)(2)(InAs)(2) short-period superlattices (SLs) were grown on InP (411)A substrates by gas-source molecular-beam epitaxy. Scanning tunneling microscopy observations revealed that the lateral-composition-modulated quantum dot structures were self-formed. They were aligned periodically along two perpendicular lateral directions with a lateral density of approximately 10(11) cm(-2). Multilayer quantum dot structures sandwiched between InP barrier layers showed strong photoluminescence emission with wavelengths of 1.3-1.6 mum depending on the SL period.
