technical field [0001] The invention relates to microelectronic devices, optoelectronic devices and nanometer devices, in particular to a composite quantum dot device prepared by using a composite structure of quantum dots and two-dimensional electron gas and a preparation method. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of the integration level of microelectronic devices, the scale of device units is getting smaller and smaller. When the size of the active region of the device reaches the range of 1 nanometer to 100 nanometers, the performance of the device and its working principle have great changes. Such devices are often referred to as nanodevices. At present, the recognized nano-devices are: (1) quantum dot devices, (2) single-electron devices and (3) resonant tunneling devices. Quantum dot devices are widely used in optical and electrical fields, such as quantum dot lasers, ideal single photon sources, single photon detectors and quantum dot mem...
