Abstract
Time-integrated and time-resolved photoluminescence spectra of neutral and negatively charged self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) were studied. Obtained spectra have indicated that the redistribution of carriers in QDs occurs in all samples, but the temperature dependence of spectra are quite different for neutral and charged QDs. To clarify the origin of these behaviors, a model calculation based on two possible redistribution mechanisms has been carried out, and compared with experiments to show that the carrier tunneling between neighboring QDs is suppressed in charged QDs.
