Abstract
To address some of the technological problems related to the proposed a novel approach based on the application of arrays of epitaxial quantum dots (eQD) that have been known for their applications in application of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals for biosensing, we have advanced communication devices such as quantum dot lasers.
