초록

InP quantum dots were grown by using the molecular beam epitaxy technique. Quantum dots are connected and composed string-like one-dimensional structure due to the strain field along [110] crystal direction. Two prominent photoluminescence transitions from normal quantum dots and string-like one-dimensional structure were observed which show strong optical anisotropy along [1-10] and [110] crystal directions. Both peaks also showed blue-shift while rotating emission polarization from [1-10] to [110] direction. Such optical transition behaviors are the consequence of the valence band mixing caused by strain field along the [110] crystal direction.
