Area of Science:

  • Optoelectronics
  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Semiconductor microcavities significantly boost light emission from embedded quantum dots (QDs).
  • Conventional methods often damage QDs during microcavity fabrication.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel fabrication route for microcavity-QD systems that protects QDs.
  • To achieve site-controlled growth of ordered Germanium quantum dots (Ge QDs) on patterned microresonators.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of microcavities followed by QD growth on patterned microresonators.
  • Utilizing self-assembled Ge QDs on silicon microring resonators (MRRs) with pit- or groove-patterning.
  • Analysis of surface morphology and chemical potential distribution to explain QD formation.

Main Results:

  • Ge QDs preferentially form at the rims of silicon microrings/microdisks.
  • Groove-patterned MRRs yield Ge QDs with superior size uniformity and positional accuracy.
  • Observed sharp photoluminescence peaks in the telecommunication band (Q-factors 450-850) at 295 K due to effective QD-mode overlap.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed method enables site-controlled growth of QDs on micro/nanostructures, preventing etching damage.
  • This approach facilitates enhanced light-matter interaction studies in QD-microcavity systems.
