Growth and characterization of III-V quantum dots on SI-based substrate

This thesis presents a systematic study of InAs quantum dot (QD) growth on Sibased substrates. Two Si-based platforms were studied, namely the graded Si1-xGex/Si substrate which has a high threading dislocation density (~106cm-2), and the germaniumon- insulator (GeOI) platform which has a lower thr...
