| Popis: | We report on the epitaxial growth of vertically stacked InP and In(Ga)As quantum dot (QD) layers to realize a triple dot quantum gate structure consisting of an asymmetric control double dot and a single target dot suitable for a CNOT gate structure. Structural analysis as well as studies on the optical properties are presented. For studies on control dot structures we analyze the growth of InP islands in a GaInP barrier on (100) GaAs substrates. By stacking InP QD layers with intentional asymmetric design in QD size of each layer and adjustment of the barrier width between the double dots, coupling and control of the coupling via barrier layer width-design can be demonstrated. For defined gate action single dot spectra of aligned dots are indispensable. Therefore QD density reduction is studied. We study two possibilities to affect the QD density and control the dot site by manipulating the surface potential of InP island nucleation. (i) Growth of InP islands on top of a low density In(Ga)As QD seed layer (ii) Growth of InP islands on patterned (100) GaAs substrates. We present microsphere photolithography in combination with wet chemical etching as a fast and low-cost method to produce regular hole arrays in a GaAs surface, which are suitable for controlled nucleation of self-assembled InP islands. |
