In this article we review the extensive experimental work on the compositional mapping of semiconductor quantum dots and rings. After a brief introduction of the various experimental techniques used for this purpose, the body of experimental results is presented, ordered by experimental technique (transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, photoelectron microscopy, scanning probe microscopy, and ion-atom probes) and material system (mainly III-Vs and Ge/Si). The article concludes with a discussion which critically compares these results and outlines some general trends.

Abstract

In this article we review the extensive experimental work on the compositional mapping of semiconductor quantum dots and rings. After a brief introduction of the various experimental techniques used for this purpose, the body of experimental results is presented, ordered by experimental technique (transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, photoelectron microscopy, scanning probe microscopy, and ion-atom probes) and material system (mainly III-Vs and Ge/Si). The article concludes with a discussion which critically compares these results and outlines some general trends.
