Abstract :
In this paper, the effects of process parameters, including nanopore formation, nanopore size, and surface cleaning conditions after nanopore formation on the characteristics of InAs SCQDs grown on GaAs are examined. The influence of MBE growth parameters on SCQD formation and approaches toward optimization of structural and optical properties will also be discussed.
