Strain-induced quantum dots (SIQD) confine electrons and holes to a lateral potential minimum within a near-surface quantum well (QW). The potential minimum is located in the QW below a nanometre-sized stressor crystal grown on top of the QW. SIQD exhibit well-resolved and prominently atomic-like optical spectra, making them ideal for experimental and theoretical studies of mesoscopic phenomena in semiconductor nanocrystals.
