Porous host materials of opal and asbestos have been infilled with InP by atmospheric pressure MOCVD. These were characterised by a variety of techniques including PL at 4 and 300 K. The PL gave clear evidence of quantum confinement with the InP bound exciton blue shifted by at least 0.2 eV. Opal/InP gave the additional characteristic of controlling the stop-band of the host. These all represent a new method of producing easily contactable quantum device structures.Porous host materials of opal and asbestos have been infilled with InP by atmospheric pressure MOCVD.
