ABSTRACTWe investigate experimentally and theoretically optical and electronic properties of In0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs quantum dot molecules (QDMs) formed by two layers of self-assembled, vertically stacked quantum dots (QDs). Structures with In0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs QD layers separated by a thin GaAs barrier were grown by solid source molecular beam epitaxy, and were characterized by time-integrated photoluminescence (PL). For the temperature-dependent PL measurements a He-flow optical cryostat was used to control the temperature between 4 and 300 K. The experimentally observed behavior is in good agreement with that expected from our eight-band k·p calculations. Optical and electronic properties of these QDMs are further compared with those of dots grown under conditions that did not promote vertical organization.
