Monolithic integration of InSb on (1 0 0) Si is a practical approach to realizing on-chip mid-infrared photonic devices. An InSb layer was grown on a (1 0 0) Si substrate using an AlSb/GaSb buffer containing InSb quantum dots (QDs). The growth process for the buffer involved the growth of GaSb on Si...
