摘要
A process is described where the position, size, and cladding of an InP nanowire with an embedded InAsP quantum dot are determined by design through lithography, processing, and growth. The vapor-liquid-solid growth mode on a patterned substrate is used to grow the InP core and defines the quantum dot size to better than +/- 2 nm while selective-area growth is used to define the cladding thickness. The clad nanowires emit efficiently in the range lambda=0.95-1.15 mu m. Photoluminescence measurements are used to quantify the dependence of the excitonic energy level structure on quantum dot size for diameters 10-40 nm. [doi:10.1063/1.3600777]
