Quantum Dots and Nanowires Grown by Metal–Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition for Optoelectronic Device Applications

Abstract

This paper discusses the growth of In(Ga)As quantum dots (QDs) and nanowires by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition and their application to optoelectronic devices. The performance characteristics of QD lasers and QD photodetectors as well as the selective area growth of QDs for integrated devices are reported.
