abstract = {Hybrid InSb and GaSb nanostructures (NSs) with different repeated cycles; one, two and four, are inserted in double AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures by molecular beam epitaxy in Stranski-Krastanov mode. Their morphologies and cross-sectional structure are inspected by atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Raman spectroscopy reveals the effect of strains produced by the presence of InSb and GaSb NSs. Optical properties of hybrid InSb and GaSb NSs are investigated by power- and temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Broad and strong PL emission of hybrid NSs are observed from 20 K to room temperature. The Ohmic contacts are performed by gold alloys metallization and gold bonding on the p-n heterojunction devices for electrical current density-voltage characterization of the devices. Photovoltaic effect of hybrid quantum NS-devices with different NS-cycles are tested and recorded under various illumination intensities. Spectral response at long wavelength in infrared region beyond 1 μm originated from the presence of hybrid NSs is detected. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.},

Al contents in AlInSb of the samples are varied. All samples are characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction and Raman scattering spectroscopy. The Raman spectroscopy is done by using excitation laser with 633 nm wavelength and 2 μm beam spot under applied magnetic field from 0 to 170 mT. Both TO and LO Raman peaks from InSb are detected from all samples. There are Raman peak shift of both TO and LO by applied magnetic field. Stronger magnetic effect is found in LO than TO phonon modes. We attribute this effect to the symmetry breaking of the InSb/AlInSb interfaces since the observed roughness of the top InSb layer can qualitatively correlate with the shift. © 2020 The Author(s).

abstract = {The dimensions and morphologies of quantum nanostructures are keys to controlling an operating wavelength to a desirable wavelength range due to the quantum effect. The dimension and morphology evolutions of InSb/InAs quantum nanostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy with respect to the number of InSb monolayers (MLs) are investigated. The formation of the quantum nanostructures is dominated by lateral growth, in which the morphology is further elongated as the number of MLs is increased. Such an anisotropic growth is explained by the difference in the surface energy along each direction, which corresponds to different atomic arrangements in the crystalline structure of InSb. Cross-sectional transmission electron microscopic images show a reduction in the lateral dimension and an increase in the height of the embedded InSb quantum nanostructures when they are embedded in the InAs matrix. The results herein provide a means for obtaining the precise control over dimensions and morphologies of the InSb/InAs nanostructures, which is essential for extending the operating wavelength further into the mid-infrared region. © 2019 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Carrier transfer (i.e., carrier recombination in QDs and escape through the barrier layer) is investigated as a function of excitation-power- and temperature-dependent PL measurements. A drastic blueshift of the QD peak energy from 1.23 to 1.30 eV and a further shift to 1.33 eV reveal the influence of the GaSb growth rate and the growth temperature on the optical properties of these QDs. The thermal activation energy is extracted from the temperature-dependent PL by fitting the integrated PL intensity of the QD peaks to the Arrhenius relation. The QDs grown at the growth rate of 0.1 monolayers/s at 450 °C have higher thermal activation energy (109 meV) than those grown at a lower growth rate and higher QD growth temperature. The observed PL characteristics are discussed in terms of QD size, uniformity of QDs, and material intermixing occurring during QD growth on the buffer layer and capping layer. © 2019 Author(s).},

For high growth rates, InSb/GaAs QDs nucleate on both the APD boundary and the APD surface, leading to high density-InSb QDs. The QD morphologies on the APD boundary and the APD surface are distinctly different. The roles of growth rate and local growth position on the morphology of realized QDs are described.

Three-dimensional dot-like InSb nanostructures are obtained by self-assembled growth at relatively low growth temperatures (250–300 °C) with slow InSb growth rate. Nanostructure base is typically elongated. Facet analysis of the free-standing InSb nanostructure grown at 250 °C shows that each nanostructure has flat top (001) surface while side facets are along <11n> directions. In contrast, InSb nanostructures grown at higher temperature show rather smooth surfaces. Analysis of their size distributions shows that the size inhomogeneity increases with the growth temperature. Moreover, Raman spectroscopy reveals both InSb-related peaks at 181 and 189 cm−1 and GaAs-related peaks at 268 and 293 cm−1.

InSb QDs are mostly formed at the antiphase-domain boundaries (APBs). The QD size, shape and density are varied with the QD growth temperature. These free-standing QDs have irregular lens and stripe-shapes with 10n side facets according to the analysis of atomic force microscopy images.

Array of self-assembled GaSb QDs having an areal density of ∼1.66 × 1010 dots/cm2 is obtained by a growth at relatively low substrate temperature (450 °C) on a GaAs surface segmented into anti-phase domains (APDs). Most of QDs form in one APD area. However, a few QDs can be observed at the APD boundaries. Raman spectroscopy is used to probe the strain in GaAs layer. Slight redshift of both LO and TO GaAs peaks are observed when GaSb QDs are buried into GaAs matrix. Optical properties of capped QDs are characterized by photoluminescence measurement at low temperatures (20 K and 30 K). Emission peaks of GaSb/GaAs QDs are found in the range of 1.0-1.3 eV at both temperatures. Slight redshift is observed when the laser excitation power is increased at 20 K while blueshift of QD peak is observed at 30 K. We attribute this abnormal behavior to the contribution of overlapped GaSb wetting layer peak in the PL emission as well as the feature of type II band structure.

abstract = {We have studied the growth of GaSb/GaAs nanostructures by droplet epitaxy with the variation of Ga deposition temperature which is one of the key parameters. With the use of low Sb flux, GaSb quantum rings (QRs) were formed as a result of the outward diffusion of Ga atoms from the droplets during crystallization. An increase of the deposition temperature results in the larger QR size and the lower QR density due to the longer diffusion length of Ga atoms, which gives rise to the larger initial droplets. Interestingly, some portion of QR lobe breaks up and transforms into a quantum dot (QD) so as to reduce the mismatch strain. A nanostructure containing both QR and QD is called a quantum-ring-with-dot structure (QRDS). As the deposition temperature increases, the nanostructure height distribution changes from unimodal to bimodal behaviors owing to the significant difference between QR and QD heights, whereas the nanostructure diameter still exhibits a unimodal distribution. The bimodal height distribution strongly affects the optical properties and the dynamic of thermal-excited carriers. © 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

Ga deposition rate was varied to form the different size and density of Ga droplets. After the droplets were exposed to Sb flux, not only the GaSb ring structure but also the complex nanostructure like the GaSb ring structure surrounded by ring-shaped dot molecules were obtained. A simple descriptive model is proposed to describe formation mechanisms of these nanostructures. It is found that Ga droplet size, distance between Ga droplets and diffusion area of Ga atoms during crystallization with Sb flux are all the crucial factors which determine the shape of GaSb nanostructures. Due to a lattice mismatch between GaSb and GaAs, strain occurred during a crystallization process should also be taken into account.

The phase structure, oxygen deficiency, and titanium deficiency of BST powders were further investigated as a function of Na content. X-ray diffraction (XRD) result was found that low Na content (0 ≤ Na ≤ 0.15) exhibited the tetragonal structure, while it was transformed to the cubic phase when high Na content. Moreover, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) result revealed that the partial oxidation of Ti3+ ions to Ti4+ ions was observed at Na content lower than 0.05 mole, while more addition of Na content resulted in the increasing of the oxygen and the titanium deficiency. Furthermore, the result indicated the oxygen deficiency significantly formed at the A-site of Sr atoms more than that of Ba atoms. © 2014 Tassanee Tubchareon et al.},
