“…Since 1993, self-assembled quantum dots (QDs) grown by the Stranski-Krastanow (S-K) strain relaxation have gained great attention due to their possible optoelectronic device applications, such as semiconductor lasers, amplifiers, modulators, photovoltaic, and infrared photo-detectors [1][2][3][4][5][6]. As examples, QD hybrid structures with QDs coupled to a quantum well (QW) have been exploited in various material systems and optoelectronic devices where additional excess carriers can be provided through carrier transfer from the QW [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14].…”
