| Popis | e have theoretically studied type-I and type-II confinement in InAs quantum dots with GaAsSb capping layer. The character of the confinement can be adjusted by the Sb content. We have found that upon the transition from type-I to type-II confinement the hole wave functions change the topology from a compact shape to a two-segment shape, resulting in the complex changes in the exciton fine structure splitting with zero values at particular compositions. Additionally, a high exciton radiative recombination probability is preserved even in type-II. This allows to design strongly luminescent quantum dots with naturally low fine structure splitting, which could serve as sources of entangled photon pairs for quantum communication. |
