abstract = {The Stranski-Krastanov (SK) growth-mode facilitates the
self-assembly of quantum dots (QDs) using lattice-mismatched
semiconductors, for instance InAs and GaAs. SK QDs are
defect-free and can be embedded in heterostructures and
nano-engineered devices. InAs QDs are excellent photon
emitters: QD-excitons, electron-hole bound pairs, are
exploited as emitters of high quality single photons for
quantum communication. One significant drawback of the
SK-mode is the wetting layer (WL). The WL results in a
continuum rather close in energy to the QD-confined-states.
The WL-states lead to unwanted scattering and dephasing
processes of QD-excitons. Here, we report that a slight
modification to the SK-growth-protocol of InAs on GaAs -- we
add a monolayer of AlAs following InAs QD formation --
results in a radical change to the QD-excitons. Extensive
characterisation demonstrates that this additional layer
eliminates the WL-continuum for electrons enabling the
creation of highly charged excitons where up to six
electrons occupy the same QD. Single QDs grown with this
protocol exhibit optical linewidths matching those of the
very best SK QDs making them an attractive alternative to
standard InGaAs QDs.},
