Electronic states of InAs/GaAs quantum dots by scanning tunneling spectroscopy

Journal Article Gaan, S ; He, Guowei ; Feenstra, R M ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

InAs/GaAs quantum-dot (QD) heterostructures grown by molecular-beam epitaxy are studied using cross-sectional scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. Individual InAs QDs are resolved in the images. Tunneling spectra acquired 3-4 nm from the QDs show a peak located in the upper part of the GaAs band gap originating from the lowest electron confined state, together with a tail extending out from the valence band from hole confined states. A line-shape analysis is used to deduce the binding energies of the electron and hole QD states.

Size-dependent tunneling and optical spectroscopy of InAs nanocrystal quantum dots

Journal Article Millo, O ; Katz, D ; Levi, Y ; ... - Journal of Low Temperature Physics

Scanning tunneling spectroscopy is used to investigate single InAs nanocrystals, 2 to 8 nm in diameter. The tunneling current-voltage characteristics exhibit a pronounced size dependence of both single electron charging energy and quantum-confined electronic states. These are well described using the Orthodox Model for single electron tunneling through a quantum dot with a discrete level structure. Quantum confined states having atomic-like S and P symmetries are directly identified in the tunneling spectra as two and six-fold single electron charging multiplets, respectively. The tunneling spectra acquired on un-passivated nanocrystals show clear evidence of sub-gap-surface states. Surprisingly, excellent agreement is found betweenmore »« less

Size dependent bandgap of molecular beam epitaxy grown InN quantum dots measured by scanning tunneling spectroscopy

Journal Article Kumar, Mahesh ; Roul, Basanta ; Central Research Laboratory, Bharat Electronics, Bangalore-560013 ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

InN quantum dots (QDs) were grown on Si (111) by epitaxial Stranski-Krastanow growth mode using plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Single-crystalline wurtzite structure of InN QDs was verified by the x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. Scanning tunneling microscopy has been used to probe the structural aspects of QDs. A surface bandgap of InN QDs was estimated from scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) I-V curves and found that it is strongly dependent on the size of QDs. The observed size-dependent STS bandgap energy shifts with diameter and height were theoretical explained based on an effective mass approximation with finite-depth square-well potential model.
