Two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) were formed in undoped In0.75Al0.25As / In0.75Ga0.25As / In0.75Al0.25As quantum wells. The optimal growth temperature for this structure is 410°C, with peak 2DEG electron mobility and density values of μ = 221000 cm2/V s and n = 1.36 × 1011 cm−2 at 1.5 K. This electron mobility is equal to the highest previously published for these undoped structures but with a factor of 2 reduction in n. This has been achieved through the use of a significantly thinner InAlAs …

Single photon detection was realized at a telecom wavelength with quantum dot resonant tunneling diodes grown on an InP substrate. The structure contains a AlAs/In0.53Ga0.47As/AlAs quantum well with InAs quantum dots grown on the top AlAs barrier. The single photon detection efficiency of the device under 1310 nm illumination was measured to be about 0.35% ± 0.07% with a dark count rate of 1.58×10-6 ns-1. This corresponds to an internal efficiency of 6.3%.

The authors present a quantum dot (QD) based single photon detector operating at a fiber optic telecommunication wavelength. The detector is based on an AlAs/In0.53Ga0.47As/AlAs double-barrier resonant tunneling diode containing a layer of self-assembled InAs QDs grown on an InP substrate. The device shows an internal efficiency of about 6.3% with a dark count rate of 1.58 × 10−6 ns−1 for 1310 nm photons.

The authors report the results of a detailed study of the effect of growth conditions, for molecular beam epitaxy, on the structural and optical properties of self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) on In0.524Al0.476As. InAs QDs both buried in, and on top of, In0.524Al0.476As were analyzed using photoluminescence (PL) and atomic force microscopy. InAs QD morphology and peak PL emission wavelength both scale linearly with deposition thickness in monolayers (MLs). InAs deposition thickness can be used to tune QD PL wavelength by 170 nm/ML, over a range of almost 700 nm. Increasing growth …
