Abstract: | The temperature dependence of steady-state and time-resolved photoluminescence from self-assembled InAs quantum dots embedded in AlAs has been studied. Millisecond-long nonexponential photoluminescence decay is observed in the temperature range of 4.2–50 K. At higher temperatures, the decay time decreases to a few nanoseconds. The experimental results are interpreted using a model of singlet–triplet splitting of exciton levels in small dots in a dense quantum dot system with local carrier transfer between dots. |
