We present the absorption spectra of an inhomogeneously broadened QD ensemble and show that the minimal model needed for an accurate description of such a system needs to account for 3-phonon states. We study also the influence of the QD height to width ratio on the optical properties of the polaron system. The dependence of the width of the resonance and the position of the second-order resonant feature on the height to width ratio is presented.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-12-09T21:35:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "self assembled quantum dots", "second-order polaron resonances", "width ratio", "inas/gaas quantum dot", "optical properties" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1002/pssc.201000845", "journal": "Physica Status Solidi C Current Topics", "year": 2011, "month": "Apr", "volume": 8, "number": 4, "pages": 1169 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011PSSCR...8.1169K" } } }
