In this article we review the extensive experimental work on the compositional mapping of
semiconductor quantum dots and rings. After a brief introduction of the various experimental …

Phonon-assisted exciton transitions in self-organized InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) are
investigated by photoluminescence (PL) and PL excitation spectroscopy. An unexpectedly …

CdSe quantum dots (QDs) doped glasses have been widely investigated for optical filters,
LED color converter and other optical emitters. Unlike CdSe QDs in solution, it is difficult to …

Amorphous materials have been recognized as highly active electrocatalysts due to their
abundant active sites stems from unsaturated chemical bonds. In addition, the application of …

Modern technology is founded on the intimate understanding of how to utilize and control
electrons. Next to electrons, nature uses phonons, quantized vibrations of an elastic …

We demonstrate that nanomechanically stamped substrates can be used as templates to
pattern and direct the self-assembly of epitaxial quantum structures such as quantum dots …

In this paper, we present a combined optical and structural study of GaAs-hosted InAs sub-
monolayer QD (SML-QD) vertical multi-stacks. The main feature of this paper is to …

The exciton-phonon coupling in self-organized InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) is
investigated under resonant excitation of the ground-state transition. First-and second-order …

We have studied the multiphonon resonant Raman scattering from confined and interface
polar optical phonons in spherical nanocrystallites. The intermediate virtual states in the …

The strain distribution in self-assembled InAs/InP (001) quantum dots is calculated, using an
atomistic valence force-field description. Two typical dot shapes are considered. Strain …
