Growth and characterization of InAs quantum dots with low-density and long emission wavelength

The growth parameters affecting the deposition of self-assembled InAs quantum dots （QDs） on GaAs substrate by low-pressure metal-organic chemical vapor deposition （MOCVD） are reported. The low-density InAs QDs （- 5 × 10^8cm^-2） are achieved using high growth temperature and low InAs coverage. Photoluminescence （PL） measurements show the good optical quality of low-density QDs. At room temperature, the ground state peak wavelength of PL spectrum and full-width at half-maximum （FWHM） are 1361 nm and 23 meV （35 nm）, respectively, which are obtained as the GaAs capping layer grown using triethylgallium （TEG） and tertiallybutylarsine （TBA）. The PL spectra exhibit three emission peaks at 1361, 1280, and 1204 nm, which correspond to the ground state, the first excited state, and the second excited state of the ODs, respectively.     

不同厚度CdSe阱层的表面上自组织CdSe量子点的发光性质

利用变温和变激发功率分别研究了不同厚度CdSe阱层的自组织CdSe量子点的发光。稳态变温光谱表明:低温下CdSe量子阱有很强的发光,高温猝灭,而其表面上的量子点发光可持续到室温,原因归结于量子点的三维量子尺寸限制效应;变激发功率光谱表明:量子点激子发光是典型的自由激子发光,且在功率增加时。宽阱层表面上的CdSe量子点有明显的带填充效应。通过比较不同CdSe阱层厚度的样品的发光,发现其表面上量子点的发光差异较大,这可以归结为阱层厚度不同导致应变弛豫的程度不同,直接决定了所形成量子点的大小与空间分布^[1]。     

Sb/As intermixing in self-assembled GaSb/GaAs type II quantum dot systems and control of their photoluminescence spectra

The intermixing of Sb and As atoms induced by rapid thermal annealing (RTA) was investigated for type II GaSb/GaAs self-assembled quantum dots (QD) formed by molecular beam epitaxy growth. Just as in InAs/GaAs QD systems, the intermixing induces a remarkable blueshift of the photoluminescence (PL) peak of QDs and reduces the inhomogeneous broadening of PL peaks for both QD ensemble and wetting layer (WL) as consequences of the weakening of quantum confinement. Contrary to InAs/GaAs QDs systems, however, the intermixing has led to a pronounced exponential increase in PL intensity for GaSb QDs with annealing temperature up to 875 °C. By analyzing the temperature dependence of PL for QDs annealed at 700, 750 and 800 °C, activation energies of PL quenching from QDs at high temperatures are 176.4, 146 and 73.9 meV. The decrease of QD activation energy with annealing temperatures indicates the reduction of hole localization energy in type II QDs due to the Sb/As intermixing. The activation energy for the WL PL was found to drastically decrease when annealed at 800 °C where the QD PL intensity surpassed WL.     

Temperature dependence of photoluminescence from self-organized Ge quantum dots with large size and low density

Photoluminescence(PL) from self-organized Ge quantum dots(QDs) with large size and low density has been investigated over a temperature range from 10 to 300 K using continuous-wave(CW) optical excitation.The integrated PL intensity of QDs observed is negligible at about 10 K and rapidly increases with raising temperature up to 100 K.Through analyzing the PL experimental data of the QDs and wetting layer(WL),we provide direct evidence that there exists a potential barrier,arising from the greater compressive...     

水溶性CdTe量子点的稳态和纳秒时间分辨光致发光光谱

报道了以飞秒脉冲激光为激发光源的水溶性CdTe量子点(QDs)的稳态荧光光谱和纳秒时间分辨荧光光谱.实验发现CdTe量子点的荧光光谱峰值位置随激发波长变化发生明显移动，激发脉冲波长越长，荧光峰位红移越大.荧光动力学实验数据显示，在400nm和800nm脉冲激光激发下，水溶性CdTe量子点的荧光光谱中均含有激子态和诱捕态两个衰减成分，两者的发射峰相距很近，诱捕态的发射峰波长较长.在800nm脉冲激光激发下的诱捕态成分占总荧光强度的比重比400nm激发下的约高3倍，其相对强度的这种变化导致了稳态荧光发射峰位的红移. 关键词： CdTe 量子点 时间分辨 荧光光谱 上转换荧光

研究了不同Mn/Pb量比的Mn掺杂CsPbCl₃（Mn：CsPbCl₃）钙钛矿量子点的发光性质。Mn/Pb的量比增加引起的Mn²⁺发光峰的红移,被认为是来源于高浓度Mn²⁺掺杂下的Mn²⁺-Mn²⁺对。进一步研究了Mn：CsPbCl₃量子点的发光效率与Mn/Pb的量比之间的关系,发现随着量比达到5：1时,其发光效率明显下降。这种发光效率下降是由于Mn掺杂浓度引起的发光猝灭。Mn：CsPbCl₃量子点的变温发光光谱证实,随着温度的升高,Mn离子发光峰蓝移,线宽加宽,但其发光强度明显增加。

PHOTOLUMINESCENCE STUDY OF InAs/GaAs SELF-ORGANIZED QUANTUM DOTS WITH BIMODAL SIZE DISTRIBUTION

We have investigated the temperature dependence of the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of self-organized InAs/GaAs quantum dots. A distinctive double-peak feature of the PL spectra from quantum dots has been observed, and a bimodal distribution of dot sizes has also been confirmed by scanning tunneling microscopy image for uncapped sample. The power-dependent PL study demonstrates that the distinctive PL emission peaks are associated with the ground-state emission of islands in different size branches. The temperature-dependent PL study shows that the PL quenching temperature for different dot families is different. Due to lacking of the couple between quantum dots, an unusual temperature dependence of the linewidth and peak energy of the dot ensemble photoluminescence has not been observed. In addition, we have tuned the emission wavelength of InAs QDs to 1.3 μm at room temperature.

Sb-mediated growth of high-density InAs quantum dots and GaAsSb embedding growth by MBE

Self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) with high-density were grown on GaAs(0 0 1) substrates by antimony (Sb)-mediated molecular beam epitaxy technique using GaAsSb/GaAs buffer layer and InAsSb wetting layer (WL). In this Sb-mediated growth, many two-dimensional (2D) small islands were formed on those WL surfaces. These 2D islands provide high step density and suppress surface migration. As the results, high-density InAs QDs were achieved, and photoluminescence (PL) intensity increased. Furthermore, by introducing GaAsSb capping layer (CL), higher PL intensity at room temperature was obtained as compared with that InGaAs CL.

Reflective photoluminescence fiber temperature probe based on the CdSe/ZnS quantum dot thin film

A reflective fiber temperature sensor based on the optical temperature dependent characteristics of a quantum dots (QDs) thin film is developed by depositing the CdSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots on the SiO₂ glass substrates. As the temperature is changed from 30 to 200°C, the peak wavelengths of PL spectra from the sensing head increase linearly with the temperature, while the peak intensity and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of PL spectra vary exponentially according to the specific physical law. Using the obtained temperature-dependent peak-wavelength shift, the average resolution of the designed fiber temperature sensor can reach 0.12 nm/°C, while it reaches 0.056 nm/°C according to the FWHM of PL spectrum.     

Power density and temperature dependent multi-excited states in InAs/GaAs quantum dots

Self-assembled InAs/GaAs (001) quantum dots (QDs) were grown by molecular beam epitaxy using ultra low-growth rate. A typical dot diameter of around 28 ± 2 nm and a typical height of 5 ± 1 nm are observed based on atomic force microscopy image. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra, their power and temperature dependences have been studied for ground (GS) and three excited states (1–3ES) in InAs QDs. By changing the excitation power density, we can significantly influence the distribution of excitons within the QD ensemble. The PL peak energy positions of GS and ES emissions bands depend on an excitation light power. With increasing excitation power, the GS emission energy was red-shifted, while the 1–3ES emission energies were blue-shifted. It is found that the full width at half maximum of the PL spectra has unusual relationship with increasing temperature from 9 to 300 K. The temperature dependence of QD PL spectra shown the existence of two stages of PL thermal quenching and two distinct activation energies corresponding to the temperature ranges I (9–100 K) and II (100–300 K).     

Temperature dependence of optical properties of InAs quantum dots grown on GaAs(113)A and (115)A substrates

We have investigated the temperature dependence of photoluminescence (PL) peak position of InAs self-assembled quantum dots (QDs) grown on GaAs(11N)A (N = 3, 5) substrates. The interband transition energy is calculated by the resolution of the 3D Schrödinger equation for a parallelepipedic InAs QD, with a width of about 8 nm and a height around 3 nm. Experimentally, it was found that the PL spectra quenches at about 160 K. In addition, the full width at half maximum (FWHM) has an abnormal evolution with varying temperature. The latter effect maybe due to the carrier repopulation between QDs. The disorientation of the GaAs substrate and the low width of terraces which was presented in the high index surfaces have an important contribution in the PL spectra. Despite the non-realist chosen shape of QD and the simplest adopted model, theoretical and experimental results revealed a clear agreement.

光诱导功能退化是胶体量子点在应用中面临的主要挑战之一,本文针对这一问题研究了使用磁控溅射沉积SiO₂薄膜形成钝化层来提高CdSe/ZnS量子点发光稳定性的方法。首先,通过三正辛基膦辅助连续离子层吸附反应方法合成了615 nm发光的红色CdSe/ZnS量子点。然后将量子点旋涂在SiO₂/Si基片上,再通过磁控溅射方法在量子点上沉积了厚度为20 nm的SiO₂薄膜作为钝化层。使用连续波激光光源分别在空气气氛和真空条件下照射样品,研究了经过不同照射时间后钝化和未钝化量子点的稳态光致发光光谱。结果表明,随着照射时间的延长,没有SiO₂钝化的量子点的PL强度显著降低、PL峰值发生蓝移、FWHM不断增大。对比研究发现,由于SiO₂薄膜能够阻挡空气中的水和氧,减缓了量子点表面的光诱导氧化现象,因此显著提高了CdSe/ZnS量子点的稳定性。     

Temperature-dependent photoluminescence of size-tunable ZnAgInSe quaternary quantum dots

Colloidal ZnAgInSe (ZAISe) quantum dots (QDs) with different particle sizes were obtained by accommodating the reaction time. In the previous research, photoluminescence (PL) of ZAISe QDs only could be tuned by changing the composition. In this work the size-tunable photoluminescence was observed successfully. The red shift in the photoluminescence spectra was caused by the quantum confinement effect. The time-resolved photoluminescence indicated that the luminescence mechanisms of the ZAISe QDs were contributed by three recombination processes. Furthermore, the temperature-dependent PL spectra were investigated. We verified the regular change of temperature-dependent PL intensity, peak energy, and the emission linewidth of broadening for ZAISe QDs. According to these fitting data, the activation energy (ΔE) of ZAISe QDs with different nanocrystal sizes was obtained and the stability of luminescence was discussed.

Analysis of room temperature PL spectra of InAs/GaAs/InP and InAs/InP self-assembled QDs: A five-band study

In this paper, room temperature PL spectra of InAs self-assembled dots grown on GaAs/InP and InP substrate are presented. For analyzing different positions of the PL peaks, we examine the strain tensor in these quantum dots (QDs) using a valence force field model, and use a five-band k·p formalism to find the electronic spectra. We find that the GaAs tensile-stained layer affects the position of room temperature PL peak. The redshift of PL peak of InAs/GaAs/InP QDs compared to that of InAs/InP QDs is explained theoretically.
