![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Suppression of indefinite peaks in InAs/GaAs quantum dot spectrum by low temperature capping in the indium-flush method Suppression of indefinite peaks in InAs/GaAs quantum dot spectrum by low temperature capping in the indium-flush method](/preview/png/1547026.png)
We have investigated effects of growth temperature of thin GaAs capping layer in the initial stage of indium-flush process using atomic force microscopy and microscopic photoluminescence (μ-PL) methods. The shape of capped InAs quantum dot (QD) and its μ-PL properties are sensitive to the growth temperature of thin GaAs capping layer. In the case of the high temperature cap, the QD shape in initial capping stage is elongated along the [1 1 −0] direction, and μ-PL spectrum shows several peaks accompanied with indefinite peaks. On the other hand, the low temperature case, the QD shape is kept in isotropic and μ-PL spectrum shows distinctive emissions from excitonic states of the QD with suppressed indefinite peaks. These results indicate that the low temperature capping is effective to keep an isotropic shape of QD and suppress indefinite peaks.
