Understanding the carrier dynamics of nanostructures is the key for development and optimization of novel semiconductor nano-devices. Here, we study the optical properties and carrier dynamics of (InGa)(AsSb)/GaAs/GaP quantum dots (QDs) by means of non-resonant energy and temperature modulated time-resolved photoluminescence. Studying this material system is important in view of the ongoing implementation of such QDs for nano memory devices. Our set of structures contains a single QD layer, QDs overgrown by a GaSb capping layer, and solely a GaAs quantum well, respectively. Theoretical analytical models allow us to discern the common spectral features around the emission energy of 1.8 eV related to GaAs quantum well and GaP substrate. We observe type-I emission from QDs with recombination times between 2 ns and 10 ns, increasing towards lower energies. The distribution suggests the coexistence of momentum direct and indirect QD transitions. Moreover, based on the considerable tunability of the dots depending on Sb incorporation, we suggest their utilization as quantum photonic sources embedded in complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) platforms, since GaP is almost lattice-matched to Si. Finally, our analysis confirms the nature of the pumping power blue-shift of emission originating from the charged-background induced changes of the wavefunction topology.

Mn has been found to self-assemble into atomic chains running perpendicular to the surface dimer reconstruction on Si(001). They differ from other atomic chains by a striking asymmetric appearance in filled state scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) i
mages. This has prompted complicated structural models involving up to three Mn atoms per chain unit. Combining STM, atomic force microscopy and density functional theory we find that a simple necklace-like chain of single Mn atoms reproduces all their prominent features, including their asymmetry not captured by current models. The upshot is a remarkably simpler structure for modelling the electronic and magnetic properties of Mn atom chains on Si(001).
Polaron dephasing processes are investigated in InAs/GaAs dots using far-infrared transient four wave mixing (FWM) spectroscopy. We observe an oscillatory behaviour in the FWM signal shortly (< 5 ps) after resonant excitation of the lowest energy con
duction band transition due to coherent acoustic phonon generation. The subsequent single exponential decay yields long intraband dephasing times of 90 ps. We find excellent agreement between our measured and calculated FWM dynamics, and show that both real and virtual acoustic phonon processes are necessary to explain the temperature dependence of the polarization decay.
We calculate the lifetime of conduction band excited states in self-assembled quantum dots by taking into account LO-phonon-electron interaction and various anharmonic phonon couplings. We show that polaron relaxation cannot be accurately described b
y a semi-classical model. The contributions of different anharmonic decay channels are shown to depend strongly on the polaron energy. We calculate the energy dependence of polaron lifetime and compare our results to available experimental measurements of polaron decay time in InAs/GaAs quantum dots.
We report observation of field emission from self-catalyzed GaAs nanowires grown on Si (111). The measurements are realized inside a scanning electron microscope chamber with nano-controlled tungsten tip functioning as anode. Experimental data are an
alyzed in the framework of Fowler-Nordheim theory. We demonstrate stable current up to 10$^{-7}$ A emitted from the tip of single nanowire, with field enhancement factor $beta$ up to 112 at anode-cathode distance d=350 nm. A linear dependence of $beta$ on the anode-cathode distance is experimentally found. We also show that the presence of a Ga catalyst droplet suppresses the emission of current from the nanowire tip. This allows detection of field emission from the nanowire sidewalls, which occurs with reduced field enhancement factor and stability. This study further extends the GaAs technology to vacuum electronics applications.
We report on photon coincidence measurement in a single GaAs self-assembled quantum dot (QD) using a pulsed excitation light source. At low excitation, when a neutral exciton line was present in the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum, we observed nearly
perfect single photon emission from an isolated QD at 670 nm wavelength. For higher excitation, multiple PL lines appeared on the spectra, reflecting the formation of exciton complexes. Cross-correlation functions between these lines showed either bunching or antibunching behavior, depending on whether the relevant emission was from a biexciton cascade or a charged exciton recombination.
