Abstract
Disclosed is a method of forming a quantum dots array. In the method of the present invention, a structure of wire-like quantum dots with good quality is formed in materials having an inconsistency in the lattice constant on a tilted substrate by using the binding property of atomic bonding due to chemical bonding steps of the tilted substrate, and the spacing of the wire-like quantum dots is varied by using the step width of the tilted substrate which is transformed due to a partial pressure of a source gas and the thickness of a buffer layer. The invention allows materials having an inconsistency in the lattice constant to be freely formed in the form of quantum wires with a growing technique only and accordingly to be used as base materials in use for manufacture of novel concept of optoelectronic devices which have not been obtained so far.
