Optical properties of InAs quantum dots with different size

InAs 양자점의 크기에 따른 분광학적 특성

We present Photoluminescence (PL) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) image on InAs quantum dots (QDs) having different size which grown by Molecualr Beam Epitaxy (MBE). For different size QDs, analysis of the AFM profiles show that the density of QDs was the maximum value $(1.1\times10^{11}\textrm{/cm}^2)$ at 2.0 ML. In the spectra of QDs, it is found that the peak energy decreases with increasing dot size due to the effect of quantum confinement. Temperature dependence of PL intensities show that the PL is quenching and Red shift as the temperature increase. The FWHM range of 20K~180K is narrowing with increasing temperature. When temperature is over 180K, the line-width starts to in creases with increasing temperature. At last, temperature dependence of the integrated intensities were fit using the Arrehenius-type function for the activation energy. Fit value of the activation energy was increased with increasing QDs-size.
