This article reviews the current state of research involving semiconductor quantum dots,
provides a brief review of the theory behind their unique properties, and an introduction …

This review seeks to extend the scope of both the experimental and theoreticalwork carried
out since I completed my 1993 review on the electronic, optical, andto a lesser extent, the …

We have demonstrated efficient production of triggered single photons by coupling a single
semiconductor quantum dot to a three-dimensionally confined optical mode in a micropost …

We study the emission line shapes of single CdSe nanocrystallite quantum dots. Single dot
line shapes are found to result from rapid spectral shifting of the emission spectrum rather …

Optical emission from individual strained indium arsenide (InAs) islands buried in gallium
arsenide (GaAs) was studied. At low excitation power density, the spectra from these …

A rapid screening and enrichment method is reported for exploring the size and shape
diversities (libraries) of nanometer-scale colloidal particles. With the use of surface …

We calculate the electronic structure of nm scale InP islands embedded in Ga 0.51 In 0.49 P.
The calculations are done in the envelope approximation and include the effects of strain …

The effect of phonon bottleneck on quantum-dot laser performance is examined by solving
the carrier-photon rate equations including the carrier relaxation process into the quantum …

With the rapid development of technologies for the fabrication of, as well as applications of
low-dimensional structures, the demands on characterization techniques increase. Spatial …
