摘要
Spectra of lateral photoconductivity of multilayer Ge/Si structures with Ge quantum dots, fabricated by molecular-beam epitaxy are studied. The photoresponse caused by optical transitions between hole levels of quantum dots and Si electronic states was observed in the energy range of 1.1-0.3 eV at T = 78 K. It was shown that the electronic states localized in the region of Si band bending near the Ge/Si interface mainly contribute to lateral photoconductivity. The use of the quantum box model for describing hole levels of quantum dots made it possible to understand the origin of peaks observed in the photoconductivity spectra. A detailed energy-level diagram of hole levels of quantum dots and optical transitions in Ge/Si structures with strained Ge quantum dots was constructed.
