We develop the design method of luminescence device with the strained quantum dots (QDs) on Si using a theoretical analysis on realistic structure. We have calculated numerically the first electron and heavy-hole quantum levels of self-assembled InGaAsN/GaP QDs using the finite element method, the model-solid theory and the band-anticrossing model. The calculation results indicate that N incorporation into InGaAs QDs drastically reduces the conduction band minimum (similar to 120 meV/N at%), and that it is shown enough energy difference between the first electron-quantum level and GaP X-state when N composition is 1 similar to 2%. For self-assembled In0.5Ga0.5As0.99N0.01/GaP QDs, the calculated transition energy at room temperature (RT) nearly matches with the measured photoluminescence (PL) peak energy.
