We propose a new method to isolate and distribute the photoluminescence emission wavelengths of InAs quantum dots (QDs) over a wide-wavelength range by the growth of the partial GaAs capping layer at low temperature and annealing processes. When the partial capping layer was grown at 485 degrees C, the emission wavelengths of the QDs were distributed within a small range around the mean wavelength. On the other hand, when the partial capping layer was grown at a lower temperature of 423 degrees C, the emission wavelengths of the individual QDs were isolated and distributed over a wide range. Thus fabricated QDs are effective for the QD based devices such as single photon sources.
