Several distinctive self-assembled InGaAs quantum dot molecules (QDMs) are studied. The QDMs self-assemble around nanoscale-sized GaAs moundlike templates fabricated by droplet homoepitaxy. Depending on the specific InAs monolayer coverage, the number of QDs per GaAs mound ranges from two to six (bi-QDMs to hexa-QDMs). The Ga contribution from the mounds is analyzed in determining the morphologies of the QDMs, with respect to the InAs coverages ranging between 0.8 and 2.4 ML. Optical characterization shows that the resulting nanostructures are high-quality nanocrystals.

Fabrication of (In,Ga)As quantum-dot chains on GaAs(100)

Physics Department, University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701
Nanostructure evolution during the growth of multilayers of In0.5Ga0.5As/GaAs (100) by molecular-beam epitaxy is investigated to control the formation of lines of quantum dots called quantum-dot chains. It is found that the dot chains can be substantially increased in length by the introduction of growth interruptions during the initial stages of growth of the GaAs spacer layer. Quantum-dot chains that are longer than 5 µm are obtained by adjusting the In0.5Ga0.5As coverage and growth interruptions. The growth procedure is also used to create a template to form InAs dots into chains with a predictable dot density. The resulting dot chains offer the possibility to engineer carrier interaction among dots for novel physical phenomena and potential devices.

Atom-resolved scanning tunneling microscopy of (In,Ga)As quantum wires on GaAs(311)A
H. Wen, Z. M. Wang, and G. J. Salamo
Physics Department, University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Arkansas 72701 
Generally (In,Ga)As strained growth on GaAs surfaces results in zero-dimensional quantum dots. The formation of one-dimensional quantum wires is demonstrated during (In,Ga)As molecular-beam-epitaxial growth on GaAs(311)A at high temperature. The wires are running along the [–233] direction. Atomically resolved scanning tunneling microscopy images reveal that the wires are triangular-shaped in cross section and the two side bonding facets are {11,5,2}. These results are discussed in terms of a mechanism of strain-driven facet formation.

GaAs(311) templates for molecular beam epitaxy growth: surface morphologies and reconstruction

Physics Department, University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Arizona 72701 
Morphologies of GaAs(311) surfaces grown by molecular beam epitaxy were investigated by in situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction and scanning tunnelling microscope. In addition to the (8×1) reconstruction, two surface phases, GaAs(311)A-(4×1) and GaAs(311)B-(2×1) were observed. Both of these surfaces are characterized by wider, atomically smooth terraces with much lower structural anisotropy, when compared to the (8×1) reconstructed GaAs(311) surfaces. The observed surfaces have potential as templates for the growth of organized quantum dots, wires, and wells.
