This book describes the full range of possible strategies for laterally aligning self-assembled quantum dots on a substrate surface, beginning with pure self-ordering mechanisms and culminating with forced alignment by lithographic positioning. The text addresses both short- and long-range ordering phenomena and introduces future high integration of single quantum dot devices on a single chip. Contributions by well-known experts ensure that all relevant quantum-dot heterostructures are elucidated from diverse perspectives.
