Abstract
Photoreflectance and high excitation photoluminescence spectra have been me asured at 10 K for In0.6Ga0.4As/GaAs double quantum dot structures with var ious thicknesses of the GaAs separating layer. Several transitions between split states, due to the dot-dot and wetting layer well-well interaction, h ave been observed. The transitions have been identified using the results o f the effective mass approximation calculations for double quantum wells an d lens-shaped double quantum dots. The splitting energy of the quantum dot transitions has been obtained as function of the GaAs barrier width. (C) 20 01 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
