摘要
Tuning of the photoluminescence emission over a wider range of optical telecommunication wavelength (1.38 mu m-1.68 mu m) has been achieved by employing a GaAs1 - Sb-x(x) capping layer to the strain coupled bilayer InAs quantum dot (QD) heterostructures. It is shown that the modulation of strain between the two dot layers through variation in Sb-content and thickness of the capping layer strongly influence the dot size. The band alignment transformation from type-I to type-II is observed for high Sb-content in the capping layers. In addition, the carrier lifetime is improved by a factor of three in the QD heterostructures having type-II band alignment. This, we believe, is of importance for optoelectronic device applications.
