摘要
In this work we present the realization of an experimental setup to measure the absorption spectrum of low planar density active media in nanoscale devices. The experimental technique employs in-plane light transmission through a waveguide embedding the active medium. It has been applied to the investigation of the room temperature optical properties of low density self-assembled InGaAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs), emitting around 1.3 mu m. A detailed analysis of the obtained spectra showed the occurrence of a Stokes shift which after inspection turned out to be related to the thermally activated carrier migration throughout the QD ensemble.
