Quantum Dots Prepared by Droplet Epitaxial Method

Abstract

In this work, we are dealing with the droplet epitaxially prepared quantum dots. This technology is not only an alternative way of the strain induced technique to prepare quantum dots, but it allows us to make various shaped nano structures from various material. The present paper deals not only with the so called conventional shaped quantum dot but also with the ring shaped dot, with the inverted dot and with dot molecules as well. Their thechnology, opto-electronical and the structural properties are also discussed.
