Optical properties of type-I and II quantum dots

This paper focuses on recent results on the optical properties of self-assembled quantum dots involving type-I InGaAs/GaAs and type-II InP/GaAs interfaces. In the first part, we focus on the InGaAs/GaAs quantum dots, that were used to study the influence of a two-dimensional electron gas on the optical emission of single quantum dots. In the second part, we present the results on type-II InP/GaAs quantum dots. In this system, we observed an experimental evidence indicating that the model used to interpret the blue shift of the type-II quantum well optical emission cannot be applied to type-II quantum dots.
