Structural and optical properties of CdxZn1−xTe/ZnTe quantum dots grown on Si(100) substrates by using molecular beam epitaxy

The authors report the observation of intersubband absorption in multilayers of CdSe∕ZnxCdyMg1−x−ySe self-assembled quantum dots. The samples were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on InP substrates. For samples with the CdSe dot layers doped with Cl and with the deposited CdSe equivalent layer thickness between 5.2 and 6.9 ML, peak absorption between 2.5 and 3.5μm was observed. These materials are promising for intersubband devices operating in the mid- and near-infrared ranges.

CdTe thin films were grown on GaAs(100) substrates by using molecular beam epitaxy at various temperatures. The results of the X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed that the orientation of the grown CdTe thin films was the (100) orientation. XRD patterns, atomic force microscopy images, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images, and photoluminescence spectra showed that the crystallinity of CdTe(100) epilayers grown on GaAs(100) substrates was improved by increasing the substrate temperature. HRTEM images showed that misfit dislocations existed at the CdTe/GaAs heterointerface. These results can help improve understanding of the substrate temperature effect on the structural and the optical properties of CdTe(100)/GaAs(100) heterostructures.
