Abstract
We report on the fabrication of self-assembled InP ring-shape nanostructures on In0.49Ga0.51P by droplet molecular-beam epitaxy. The dependency of InP ring-shape nanostructural properties on substrate temperature and indium deposition rate is investigated by ex situ atomic force microscope (AFM). The nano-craters are formed when indium deposition at 120°C while the ring shape quantum-dot molecules are formed when indium deposition at 150°C or higher. The size, density and pattern of InP ring-shape nanostructures strongly depend on substrate temperature and indium deposition rate during indium deposition.
