摘要
InAs quantum dots (QDs) overgrown by a Ga(0.85)In(0.15)NxAs(1-x) (0 <= x <= 0.017) layer have been realized on GaAs substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. When the nitrogen composition increases, the photoluminescence (PL) wavelength redshifts up to 1.52 mu m. It is shown that PL properties of InAs/Ga0.85In0.15N0.012As0.988 QDs are improved by thermal annealing. Finally, 1.45 mu m PL emission with a 38.5 meV full width at half maximum is obtained at room temperature. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
