Bird migration and the spread of Crustacea. [Translation from: Verhandlungen der Deutschen Zoologischen Gesellschaft 27, 311-316, 1963.]

The passive spread of a high percentage of freshwater organisms is one of the most important requirements in short-lived and insular communities for species to attai n and survive - and consequently to balance the lack of a topographical continuity of most inland waters. Unfortunately hardly anything is known about the amounts of seed material typical for any lake into which it is carried. The causes of passive dissemination - wind, water and animals as well as man - are confirmed by many examples. It has been assumed now for at least a hundered years that , among animals, birds play a prominent role, although also disappointingly few facts are at hand. The passage and spread through birds' intestines has up to now been supported only by some limited data. This paper reports on experimental research where the eggs of Daphnia magna, Triops cancriformis, Artemia salina, Diaptomus spinosus and Cypris pubera were introduced by means of gelatine capsules into the oesophagus of a drake. The bird's excrements were inspected under a microscope for eggs and resting stages, and these were transferred into corresponding cultures.

Atomic hydrogen induced step bunching and fabrication of quantum wire arrays on GaAs (311)A substrate by molecular beam epitaxy

Atomic hydrogen assisted molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) is a novel type of epitaxial growth of nanostructures. The GaAs (311)A surface naturally forms one-dimensional step arrays by step bunching along the direction of (-233) and the space period is around 40nm. The step arrays extend over several mum without displacement. The InGaAs quantum wire arrays are grown on the step arrays as the basis. Our results may prompt further development of more uniform quantum wire and quantum dot arrays.

InAs self-assembled quantum dots grown on an InP (311)B substrate by molecular beam epitaxy

Self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) have been grown by solid-source molecular beam epitaxy on a (311)B InP substrate. Transmission electron microscopy clearly shows that a high density of smaller InAs islands can be obtained by using such a high index substrate. After introducing a lattice-matched underlying In0.52Al0.24Ga0.24As layer, the InAs QDs are much more uniform in size and form two-dimensional well ordered arrays. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra also confirm that the InAs QDs grown on underlying In0.52Al0.24Ga0.24As have a better quality than those grown in the In0.52Al0.48As matrix. A simple calculation indicates that the redshift of the PL peak energy mainly results from InAs QDs on underlying In0.52Al0.24Ga0.24As of large size. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.

Photoluminescence studies of type-II self-assembled InAlAs/AlGaAs QDs grown on (311)A GaAs substrate

The photoluminescence (PL) spectra of self-assembled In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.45Ga0.5As quantum dots (QD) grown on (311)A GaAs substrate were measured. The type- I character of PL related to the X valley was verified by excitation power dependence of peak position and the PL spectra under different pressure , which was attributed to the type- II transition from X valley in Al0.5Ga0.5As to heavy holes in In0.55Al0.45As The high energy Gamma -related transition was also observed above 70K and assigned as the transition between Gamma valley and heavy holes in In-0.55 Al0.45As. The X-valley split was discussed to interpret the observed second X-related peak under pressure.

Two-dimensional ordering of self-assembled InAs quantum dots grown on (311)B InP substrate

Self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) in InAlAs grown on (001) and (311)B InP substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) have been comparatively investigated. A correlated study of atomic force microscopy (AFM) and photoluminescence (PL) disclosed that InAs QDs grown on high-index InP substrates can lead to high density and uniformity. By introducing a lattice-matched InAlGaAs overlayer on InAlAs buffer, still more dense and uniform InAs QDs were obtained in comparison with InAs QDs formed with only InAlAs matrix. Moreover, two-dimensional well-ordered InAs dots with regular shape grown on (311)B InP substrates are reported for the first time. We explained this exceptional phenomenon from strain energy combined with kinetics point of view. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Self-organized type-II In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.50Ga0.50As quantum dots realized on GaAs(311)A

Self-organized In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.50Ga0.50As quantum dots are grown by the Stranski-Krastanow growth mode using molecular beam epitaxy on the GaAs(311)A substrate. The optical properties of type-II InAlAs/AlGaAs quantum dots have been demonstrated by the excitation power and temperature dependence of photoluminescence spectra. A simple model accounting for the size-dependent band gap of quantum dots is given to qualitatively understand the formation of type-II In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.50Ga0.50As quantum dots driven by the quantum-confinement-induced Gamma --> X transition. The results provide new insights into the band structure of InAlAs/AlGaAs quantum dots. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physics. [S0003-6951(00)00725-7].

Photoluminescence studies of type-II self-assembled In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.5Ga0.5As quantum dots grown on (311)A GaAs substrate

We investigated the photoluminescence (PL) of self-assembled In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.5Ga0.5As quantum dots (QDs) grown on (311)A GaAs substrate. The PL peak at 10 K shifts to lower energy by about 30 meV when the excitation power decreases by two orders of magnitude. It has a red-shift under pressure, that is the character of X-like transition. Moreover, its peak energy is smaller than the indirect gap of bulk Al0.5Ga0.5As and In0.55Al0.45As. We then attribute that peak to the type-II transition between electrons in X valley of Al0.5Ga0.5As and heavy holes in In0.55Al0.45As QDs. A new peak appears at the higher energy when temperature is increased above 70 K. It shifts to higher energy with increasing pressure, corresponding to the transition from conduction Gamma band to valence band in QDs. The measurements demonstrate that our In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.5Ga0.5As quantum dots are type-II QDs with X-like conduction-band minimum. To interpret the second X-related peak emerged under pressure, we discuss the X-valley split in QDs briefly. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physics. [S0003-6951(00)04622-2].

Indium composition dependence of the size uniformity of InGaAs quantum dots on (311)B GaAs grown by molecular beam epitaxy

The deposition of InxGa1-xAs (0.2 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.5) on (311)B GaAs surfaces using solid source molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) has been studied. Both AFM and photoluminescence emission showed that homogeneous quantum dots could be formed on (311)B GaAs surface when indium composition was around 0.4. Indium composition had a strong influence on the size uniformity and the lateral alignment of quantum dots. Compared with other surface orientation, (100) and (n11) A/B (n=1,2,3), photoluminescence measurement confirmed that (311)B surface is the most advantageous in fabricating uniform and dense quantum dots.

Two-dimensional ordering of self-assembled InxGal-xAs quantum dots grown on GaAs(311)B surfaces

Two-dimensional (2D) ordering of self-assembled InxGa1-xAs quantum dots (QDs) fabricated on GaAs(311)B surface by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) are reported. The QDs are aligned into rows deferring from the direction of the misorientation of the substrate, and strongly dependent on the mole In content x of InxGa1-xAs solid solution. The ordering alignment deteriorates significantly as the In content is increased to above 0.5. The 2D ordering can be described as a centered rectangular unit mesh with the two sides parallel to [01 (1) over bar] and [(2) over bar 33], respectively. Their relative arrangement seems to be determined by a combination of the strongly repulsive elastic interaction between neighbouring islands and the minimization of the strain energy of the whole system. The ordering also helps to improve the size homogeneity of the InGaAs islands. Photoluminescence (PL) result demonstrates that QDs grown on (311)B have the narrowest linewidth and the strongest integrated intensity, compared to those grown on (100) and other high-index planes under the same condition.

Two-dimensional ordering of self-assembled InxGa1-xAs quantum dots grown on GaAs(311)B surfaces

The two-dimensional (2D) ordering of self-assembled InxGa1-xAs quantum dots (QDs) fabricated on GaAs(3 1 1)B surface by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) are reported. The QDs are aligned into rows differing from the direction of the misorientation of the substrate, and strongly dependent on the mole In content x of InxGa1-As-x solid solution. The ordering alignment deteriorates significantly as the In content is increased to above 0.5. The 2D ordering can be described as a centered rectangular unit mesh with the two sides parallel to [0 1 (1) over bar] and [(2) over bar 3 3], respectively. Their relative arrangement seems to be determined by a combination of the strongly repulsive elastic interaction between the neighboring islands and the minimization of the strain energy of the whole system. The ordering also helps to improve the size homogeneity of the InGaAs islands. The photoluminescence (PL) result demonstrates that QDs grown on (3 1 1)B have the narrowest linewidth and the strongest integrated intensity, compared to those on (1 0 0) and other high-index planes under the same condition.

Structural and optical properties of self-assembled InAs quantum dots grown on GaAs (311) A substrate

We report the structural and optical characteristics of InAs quantum dots (QDs) grown on GaAs (311)A substrates. Atomic force microscopic result shows that QDs on (311)A surface exhibit a nonconventional, faceted, arrowhead-like shapes aligned in the [233] direction. The photoluminescence (PL) intensity, peak position and the full width at half maxinum (FWHM) are all closely related to the measurement temperature. The fast redshift of PL energy and monotonous decrease of linewidth with increasing temperature were observed and explained by carriers being thermally activated to the barrier produced by the wetting layer and then being retrapped and recombined in energetically lower-lying QDs states. This model explains our results well.

Lateral ordered InGaAs self-organized quantum dots grown on (311) GaAs by conventional molecular beam epitaxy

Self-assembled InxGa1-xAs quantum dots (QDs) on (311) and (100) GaAs surfaces have been grown by conventional solid source molecular beam epitaxy. Spontaneously ordering alignment of InxGa1-xAs QDs with lower In content around 0.3 has been observed on As-terminated (B type) surfaces. The direction of alignment orientation of the QDs formation differs from the direction of misorientation of the (311) B surface, and is strongly dependent upon the In content x. The ordering alignment becomes significantly deteriorated as the In content is increased to above 0.5 or as the QDs are formed on (100) and (311) Ga-terminated (A type) substrates.

Self-limiting MBE growth and characterization of three-dimensionally confined nanostructures on patterned GaAs(311)A substrates

The formation of triangular-shaped dot-like (TD) structures grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs (311)A substrates patterned with square- and triangular-shaped holes is compared. On substrates patterned with square-shaped holes, TD structures are formed via the pinch-off of two symmetrically arranged {111} planes which develop freely in the regions between the holes on the original substrate surface, while the (111)A sidewalls of the as-etched holes develop a rough morphology during growth. The evolution of the rough ( 1 1 1)A sidewalls is eliminated on substrates patterned with triangular shaped holes resulting in similar TD structures with highly improved uniformity over the entire pattern. Spectrally and spatially resolved cathodoluminescence spectroscopy reveals the lateral variation of the quantum-well confinement energy in the TD structures generating distinct lateral energy barriers between the top portion and the nearby smooth regions with efficient radiative recombination. Formation of TD structures provides a new approach Do fabricate three-dimensionally confined nanostructures in a controlled manner.
