The investigation of indium antimonide quantum dots has been carried out by the methods of differential normalized tunnel current-voltage characteristics, electron microscopy, particle size analysis and spectral dependence of the absorption coefficient. Qualitatively and quantitatively consistent measurement results were obtained with an error less than 15 %. It is concluded that the analysis of normalized differential tunnel current-voltage characteristics is an effective method of express-analysis that can be used in investigation of quantum-sized objects properties.
Keywords: quantum dots, indium antimonide, differential tunnel current-voltage characteristics, energy spectrum.
