Effect of strain on the formation of antibonding hole ground states in InAs quantum dot moleculs
A six-band k · p model was used to study two lowest single-particle hole states in two vertically coupled InAs/GaAs quntum dots (CQDs) by interdot distance.The elastic strain due to the lattice mismatch between InAs and GaAs was inclued into the problem.Strain effects play the dominant role in the band offset and affects the hole states of the coupled dot system.The calculation shows that the cirtical inter-dot distance is about 2nm,above which the hole ground states are anti-bonding-like.The strain in the dot molecule decrease the critical inter-dot distance and makes the ground states more confined on the bottom dots.
