Room temperature emission at 1.6 µm from InGaAs quantum dots capped with GaAsSb

Room temperature photoluminescence at 1.6 µm is demonstrated from InGaAs quantum dots capped with an 8 nm GaAsSb quantum well. Results obtained from various sample structures are compared, including samples capped with GaAs. The observed redshift in GaAsSb capped samples is attributed to a type II b...

Sumario:Room temperature photoluminescence at 1.6 µm is demonstrated from InGaAs quantum dots capped with an 8 nm GaAsSb quantum well. Results obtained from various sample structures are compared, including samples capped with GaAs. The observed redshift in GaAsSb capped samples is attributed to a type II band alignment and to a beneficial modification of growth kinetics during capping due to the presence of Sb. The sample structure is discussed on the basis of transmission electron microscopy results.
