Abstract:Optical properties of epitaxial quantum dots are of considerable interest for high e ciency optoelectronic devices and room-temperature quantum light sources. In this work, the general crystal orientation effects on the spontaneous emission peak of wurtzite (WZ) GaN/AlN quantum dots (QDs) grown on semi-polar substrates is studied theoretically. As crystal orientation changes from Θ=0° to Θ=90°, the spontaneous emission peak is predicted to increase almost ten-fold. This drastic change of the spontaneous emissi… Show more
