Why quantum dot simulation domain must contain multi-million atoms?
11 Jan 2013 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Muhammad Usman
The InGaAs quantum dots obtained from the self-assembly growth process are heavily strained. The long-range strain and piezoelectric fields significantly modifies the electronic structure of the quantum dots. This imposes a critical constraint on the minimum size of the simulation domain to study...
TE/TM polarisation response of InAs/GaAs quantum dot bilayers
22 Oct 2015 | Presentation Materials | Contributor(s): Muhammad Usman
Quantum dot bilayers are strong candidates for the design of telecom devices working at 1300 nm wavelength range. Here we analyse - both experimentally and theoretically - their optical and polarisation properties.
