Abstract
The physical properties of self-assembled quantum-dot (QD) lasers are attracting attention because of their potential application in telecommunication systems. The zero-dimensional nature and three-dimensional confinement of QDs give rise to widely-spaced discrete states, resulting in carrier dynamics and lasing characteristics that differ significantly from double heterostructure or quantum well lasers.
