We report on a study of the photoluminescence spectra taken from quasi one-dimensional and quasi zero-dimensional semiconductor heterostructures. The structures were grown by molecular-beam epitaxy in (111) direction and were cylindrical nanowires based on AlGaAs, of 20 - 50 nm in diameter and 0.5 - 1 μm in length. Inside the nanowires contain one or two GaAs quantum dots, of 2 nm thick and 15 - 45 nm in diameter. We studied a single nanowire. The photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation spectra were registered as a function of the intensity of optical excitation.
