X-ray scattering from InAs quantum dots

This thesis addresses one of the major outstanding problems in the study of self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs): their physical profile after deposition of a capping layer and post-growth processing. The optical properties of QDs depend critically on the shape, composition and strain profile, yet...
