A study of previously overlooked structural and optical properties of InGaAs heterostructures grown on (111)B oriented GaAs substrates patterned with inverted 7.5 um pitch pyramidal recesses is presented. First, the composition of the confinement barrier material (GaAs in this work) and its growth temperature are shown as some of the key parameters that determine the main quantum dot properties, including nontrivial emission energy dependence, excitonic pattern and unusual photoluminescence energetic ordering of the InGaAs ensemble nanostructures. Secondly, the formation of a formerly unidentified type of InGaAs nanostructures - three corner quantum dots - is demonstrated in our structures next to the well-known ones (a quantum dot and three lateral quantum wires and quantum wells). The findings show the complexity of the pyramidal quantum dot system which strongly depends on the sample design and which should be considered when selecting highly symmetric (central) quantum dots in newly designed experimental projects.
Pyramidal quantum dots (QDs) grown in inverted recesses have demonstrated over the years an extraordinary uniformity, high spectral purity and strong design versatility. We discuss recent results, also in view of the Stranski-Krastanow competition an
Natural silicon consists of three stable isotopes with atomic mass 28 (92.21%), 29 (4.70%) and 30 (3.09%). To present day, isotopic enrichment of Si was used in electronics for two goals: (i) fabrication of substrates with high level of doping and ho
Using polarized optical and magneto-optical spectroscopy, we have demonstrated universal aspects of electrodynamics associated with Dirac nodal-lines. We investigated anisotropic electrodynamics of NbAs$_2$ where the spin-orbit interaction triggers e
We report the optical conductivity in high-quality crystals of the chiral topological semimetal CoSi, which hosts exotic quasiparticles known as multifold fermions. We find that the optical response is separated into several distinct regions as a fun
We have used soft x-ray photoemission electron microscopy to image the magnetization of single domain La$_{0.7}$Sr$_{0.3}$MnO$_{3}$ nano-islands arranged in geometrically frustrated configurations such as square ice and kagome ice geometries. Upon th
