We present calculations of the acoustic phonon spectra for a variety of quantum dots and consider the cases where the quantum dots are both free-standing and embedded in a selection of different matrix materials — including semiconductors, plastic, and water. These results go beyond previous calculations for free-standing quantum dots and demonstrate that the matrix material can have a large effect on the acoustic phonon spectrum and consequently on a variety of phonon-assisted transitions in quantum-dot heterostructures.

AbstractWe describe a model for numerical calculation of phonon spectrum in a three-dimensional regimented array of semiconductor quantum dots. Regimentation and possibility of carrier mini-band formation make this structure analogous to a crystal, e.g.quantum dot crystal. It is demonstrated that the acoustic phonon dispersion undergoes strong modification in such a structure leading to emergence of low-energy quasi-optical branches. Strong phonon spectrum modification is expected to affect carrier relaxation and transport properties.
