Abstract :
We demonstrate a new approach based on Nano Selective Area Growth, to precisely localize InAs/InP quantum dots (QDs) grown by MetalOrganic Vapor Phase Epitaxy. This approach leads to the formation of site-controlled InAs/InP QDs with high structural properties, and allows a precise control of the growth rate and thus of the QD size. The InP capping layer presents an optimal surface morphology for the development of microcavities located around the QDs.
