Abstract :
In-plane ultrahigh-density InAs/GaAsSb quantum dots (QDs) with a type-2 band alignment were grown on GaAs(001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. Photo-conductance properties of those QD samples were measured at 15 K and room temperature. At 15 K, photo-induced current due to photo-excitation of carriers between a valence band and QD levels was enhanced for a shorter light than about 1030 nm. Additional irradiation of a second excitation light of 1700-2450 nm induced two-step photo-excitation from QD levels to bands.
