Description

Arrays of InAs quantum dot (QD) molecules in the GaAs matrix, which consist of pairs of vertically aligned InAs QDs, have been synthesized by molecular beam epitaxy. A study of the resulting structures by transmission electron microscopy demonstrated that the vertically aligned QDs are equal in size. Photoluminescence measurements revealed that the spectra of the samples under study contain bands corresponding to electronic states in QD molecules
