ABSTRACTWe have developed a selective-area-growth (SAG) method of self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) using a metal-mask (MM) combined with molecular beam epitaxy for realizing photonic crystal (PC) based ultra-small and ultra-fast all-optical devices (PC-SMZ and PC-FF). Successful SAG of QDs was confirmed by atomic-force-microscopy observations and photoluminescence (PL) measurements. High density and high uniformity comparable to those of conventional QDs grown without the MM were achieved; the QD density was 4 × 1010cm-2 and a linewidth of the PL peak was around 30meV at room temperature. In addition, insertion of a strain-reducing layer on the grown QD was effective for varying the PL peak wavelength of the QD from 1240nm to 1320nm without any extra optical degradation. The MM method reported here is promising for achieving the all optical devices, PC-SMZ and PC-FF, which require SAG of QDs and a QD ensemble with a different absorption-peak wavelength in a different area.

The basics of the self-assembled growth of GaN nanorods on Si(111) are reviewed. Morphology differences and optical properties are compared to those of GaN layers grown directly on Si(111) . The effects of the growth temperature on the In incorporation in self-assembled InGaN nanorods grown on Si(111) is described. In addition, the inclusion of InGaN quantum disk structures into self-assembled GaN nanorods show clear confinement effects as a function of the quantum disk thickness. In order to overcome the properties dispersion and the intrinsic inhomogeneous nature of the self-assembled growth, the selective area growth of GaN nanorods on both, c-plane and a-plane GaN on sapphire templates, is addressed, with special emphasis on optical quality and morphology differences. The analysis of the optical emission from a single InGaN quantum disk is shown for both polar and non-polar nanorod orientations.

Selective area growth (SAG) of III-V nanowires (NWs) by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and related epitaxy techniques offer several advantages over growth on unpatterned substrates. Here, an analytic model for the total flux of group III atoms impinging NWs is presented, which accounts for specular re-emission from the mask surface and the shadowing effect in the absence of surface diffusion from the substrate. An expression is given for the shadowing length of NWs corresponding to the full shadowing of the mask. Axial and radial NW growths are considered in different stages, including the stage of purely axial growth, intermediate stage with radial growth, and asymptotic stage, where the NWs receive the maximum flux determined by the array pitch. The model provides good fits with the data obtained for different vapor–liquid–solid and catalyst-free III-V NWs.

Nb/InAs-nanowire Josephson junctions are fabricated in situ by a special shadow evaporation scheme for the superconducting Nb electrode. The junctions are interesting candidates for superconducting quantum circuits requiring large magnetic fields.
