Abstract
InAs QDs were grown on vicinal GaAs (100) substrate via metal organic chemical vapor deposition.
Several different
methods were used to investigate the formation of InAs QDs, including conventional continue growth mode and pulsed
atomic layer epitaxy (PALE) mode. When the continuous growth mode was used, a bimodal size distribution of QDs with
small QDs and large islands is observ ed and the large InAs islands can be hardly suppressed . W hen the PALE mode was
used, the results show that the InAs QDs with uniform size can be achieved and large InAs islands can be completely
suppressed with optimized growth parameters ..
