| Abstract: | We introduce a photoluminescence inner core excitation (PLICE) for the studies of semiconductor quantum structures. This novel method, in which we use synchrotron radiation as tunable excitation source, is expected to facilitate us to obtain electronic and compositional information about buried quantum structures. Here we report experimental results on quantum dots (QDs) and quantum wires (QWRs), in order to demonstrate potential applicability of the method to the semiconductor nanostructure studies. |
