| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Group IV nanodots are expected for various applications such as optical devices for Si photonics, memory devices with new structures, and high-efficiency solar cells. The purpose of this study is to develop the method of low-temperature formation and to control their shapes by making use of the growth technique of In(Ga)As QDs using bismuth (Bi) as a surfactant, which we have developed in our previous work. The newly developed method is sequential evaporation of Bi and Ge under low temperature (Room temp. to around 130℃) and relatively low-temperature annealing (300℃ to 400℃). By this method, we have successfully formed crystalline Ge nanodots. Also, we have revealed that the formation mechanism under this method is not based on surfactant which we have expected at first but based on the newly found mechanism.
