Single quantum dots (QDs) reproduce into pairs of QDs with increasing separation distance during the growth of a three-dimensional QD crystal. Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations—that rely on strain profiles deduced from experiment—can describe this lateral replication process, which is triggered by a distinct ridge structure that evolves during the overgrowth of two-dimensional periodic QD arrays.
