A detailed theoretical study of the optical absorption in self-assembled quantum dots is presented in this paper. A rigorous atomistic strain model as well as a sophisticated electronic band structure model are used to ensure accurate prediction of the optical transitions in these devices . The optimized models presented in this paper are able to reproduce the experimental results with an error less than 1$%$. The effects of incident light polarization, alloy mole fraction, quantum dot dimensions, and doping have been investigated. The in-plane polarized light absorption is more significant than the perpendicularly polarized light absorption. Increasing the mole fraction of the strain controlling layer leads to a lower energy gap and larger absorption wavelength. Surprisingly, the absorption wavelength is highly sensitive to changes in the dot diameter, but almost insensitive to changes in the dot height. This unpredicted behavior is explained by sensitivity analysis of different factors which affect the optical transition energy.
The magnetic field dependence of the excitonic states in unstrained GaAs/AlGaAs quantum dots is investigated theoretically and experimentally. The diamagnetic shift for the ground and the excited states are studied in magnetic fields of varying orien
I present a systematic study of self-assembled InAs/InP and InAs/GaAs quantum dots single particle and many body properties as a function of quantum dot-surrounding matrix valence band offset. I use an atomistic, empirical tight-binding approach and
We report quantum dots fabricated on very shallow 2-dimensional electron gases, only 30 nm below the surface, in undoped GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Due to the absence of dopants, an improvement of more than one orde
We carry out microphotoluminescence measurements of an acceptor-bound exciton (A^0X) recombination in the applied magnetic field with a single impurity resolution. In order to describe the obtained spectra we develop a theoretical model taking into a
