Fabrication and evaluation of series-triple quantum dots by thermal oxidation of silicon nanowire
Series-connected triple quantum dots were fabricated by a simple two-step oxidation technique using the pattern-dependent oxidation of a silicon nanowire and an additional oxidation of the nanowire through the gap of the fine gates attached to the ...

Theoretical study of intraband optical transitions in conduction band of dot-in-a-well system
We study numerically absorption optical spectra of n-doped InAs/In015Ga085As/GaAs quantum dot-in-a-well systems. The absorption spectra are mainly determined by the size of a quantum dot and have weak dependence on the thickness of quantum well and ...

Electronic structure of rectangular quantum dots [PDF]
We study the ground state properties of rectangular quantum dots by using the spin-density-functional theory and quantum Monte Carlo methods. The dot geometry is determined by an infinite hard-wall potential to enable comparison to manufactured, rectangular-shaped quantum dots. We show that the electronic structure is very sensitive to the deformation,

Spin-orbit-induced circulating currents in a semiconductor nanostructure [PDF]
Circulating orbital currents produced by the spin-orbit interaction for a single electron spin in a quantum dot are explicitly evaluated at zero magnetic field, along with their effect on the total magnetic moment (spin and orbital) of the electron spin.

Single- and few-electron dynamic quantum dots in a perpendicular magnetic field
We present experimental studies of the current pumped through a dynamic quantum dot over a wide range of magnetic fields. At low fields we observe repeatable structure indicating increased confinement of the electrons in the dynamic dot. At higher fields

Universal fine-structure eraser for quantum dots
The measurable degree of entanglement from a quantum dot via the biexciton-exciton cascade depends crucially on the bright exciton fine-structure splitting and on the detection time resolution. Here, we propose an optical approach with fast rotating waveplates to erase this fine-structure splitting and therefore obtain a high degree of entanglement ...

Photovoltaic Performance of a Nanowire/Quantum Dot Hybrid Nanostructure Array Solar Cell
An innovative solar cell based on a nanowire/quantum dot hybrid nanostructure array is designed and analyzed. By growing multilayer InAs quantum dots on the sidewalls of GaAs nanowires, not only the absorption spectrum of GaAs nanowires is extended by ...
