摘要：
We have studied the influence of InP buffer-layer morphology in the formation of InAs nanostructures grown on InP(001) substrates by solid-source molecular-beam epitaxy. Our results demonstrate that when InP buffer layers are grown by atomic-layer molecular-beam epitaxy, InAs quantum dot-like structures are formed, whereas InP buffer layers grown by MBE produce quantum-wire-like structures. The optical properties of these corrugated structures make them potential candidates for their use in light-emitting devices at 1.55 mu m. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physics.
