Abstract

Summary form only given. The use of strain to produce self-organized quantum dots has now become a well-accepted approach and is widely used in III-V semiconductors and other material systems. Much progress has been made in the area of growth - where the focus has been on size control, and optical characterization, where the goal has been the application to lasers and detectors. This paper describes the growth and optical properties of (in,Ga)As/(Ga,AI)As and InGaN/GaN quantum dots, and their application to nanophotonic devices.
