11. Separate work under pulsed excitation shows that at high power the weak feature at 1880 meV becomes much more prominent, supporting its origin as wetting layer recombination.
12. 0 midpoint of 1.8±0.5 meV. A study of similar single InAlAs-AlGaAs dots reported only unpolarized spectra, in contrast to the present work, see, e.g., K. Hinzer et al., Phys. Rev. B 63, 075314 (2001).
