Single InGaAs quantum wires and stacked InGaAs quantum wires with InAlAs barriers have been fabricated on v-grooved InP substrates by low pressure metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The authors have found growth conditions where the InAlAs barrier exhibits a resharpening effect, similar to that of AlgaAs utilized for growth on GaAs substrates. The existence of structural and electronic quantum wires in the bottom of the grooves is proven.
