III-N nanowires (NWs) have attracted a lot of attention in recent years due to their high crystalline quality compared to III-N thin films. The realization of InGaN/GaN heterostructures embedded in GaN-NWs allows one to shift the photoluminescence emission energy into the visible spectral range and to improve its temperature stability. We report on the emission properties of InGaN quantum dots (QDs) embedded in GaN NWs grown by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy on n-type Si(111) substrates. A series of samples with varied QD-thickness was investigated by low temperature photoluminescence (PL), single wire micro-PL, and time-resolved PL measurements. Emission bands at 3.48 eV, around 2.5 eV and at approximately 3.15 eV are attributed to the GaN band gap, the QD emission, and interfacial defects, respectively. High resolution transmission electron microscopy analysis was performed on selected samples for structural characterization.
