Abstract

Self-organized In0.6Ga0.4As/GaAs/AlGaAs quantum dot (QD) heterostructures were grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition using the Stranski-Krastanow growth mode. The atomic force microscopy image shows that the quantum dot structures are formed. The room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurement was employed to establish the optimized growth condition for QD structures. A strong PL emission was obtained at room temperature. Blueshifts in the PL emission from InGaAs QDs are observed as a results of postgrowth annealing and also when raising the upper cladding layer growth temperatures. Also, the strong electroluminescence at room temperature shows the possibility of QD optical device. Using the optimized growth condition, a full laser structure was fabricated by selective oxidation.
