In this paper, semiconductor quantum dot structures for mid-infrared emission were self-assembled on InP substrate by using metal–organic vapor phase epitaxy growth. The InAs quantum dots grown at different conditions have been investigated. To improve the grown quantum dot's shape, the dot density and the dot size uniformity, a two-step growth method has been used and investigated. By changing the composition of the In x Ga 1-x As matrix layer of the InAs / In x Ga 1-x As / InP quantum dot structure, emission wavelength of the InAs quantum dot structure has been extended to the longest > 2.35 μm measured at 77 K. For the narrower bandgap semiconductor InAsSb quantum dots, the emission wavelength was measured at > 2.8 μm.

Abstract We report on the formation process of GaN/AlN quantum dots which arises after the deposition of 1 - 2 monolayers of GaN on an AlN/sapphire template followed by a distinct growth interruption. The influence of the duration of a growth interruption on structural and optical properties of the GaN layer has been systematically investigated. Quantum dots develop from initially bulky GaN islands, which nucleate in close vicinity to bundles of threading dislocations. For prolonged growth interruptions a decreasing island size is observed which is consistent with a systematic blue shift of the emission wavelength. In addition, a fragmentation of the bulky GaN islands into several smaller islands occurs, strongly depending on local strain fields caused by threading dislocations as well as on a different facet orientation of the islands. This morphological transition during growth interruption eventually leads to GaN quantum dot formation which assemble as clusters with a density of 108 cm-2. Desorption of GaN is identified as the major source for this morphological transition. The growth interruption time allows for tuning of the quantum dot emission wavelength in the UV spectral range.

In this study, adding CsPbI3 quantum dots to organic perovskite methylamine lead triiodide (CH3NH3PbI3) to form a doped perovskite film filmed by different temperatures was found to effectively reduce the formation of unsaturated metal Pb. Doping a small amount of CsPbI3 quantum dots could enhance thermal stability and improve surface defects. The electron mobility of the doped film was 2.5 times higher than the pristine film. This was a major breakthrough for inorganic quantum dot doped organic perovskite thin films.

AbstractAll-inorganic CsPbI3 perovskite quantum dots have received substantial research interest for photovoltaic applications because of higher efficiency compared to solar cells using other quantum dots materials and the various exciting properties that perovskites have to offer. These quantum dot devices also exhibit good mechanical stability amongst various thin-film photovoltaic technologies. We demonstrate higher mechanical endurance of quantum dot films compared to bulk thin film and highlight the importance of further research on high-performance and flexible optoelectronic devices using nanoscale grains as an advantage. Specifically, we develop a hybrid interfacial architecture consisting of CsPbI3 quantum dot/PCBM heterojunction, enabling an energy cascade for efficient charge transfer and mechanical adhesion. The champion CsPbI3 quantum dot solar cell has an efficiency of 15.1% (stabilized power output of 14.61%), which is among the highest report to date. Building on this strategy, we further demonstrate a highest efficiency of 12.3% in flexible quantum dot photovoltaics.
