Rolled-up GaAs tubular structures, with the incorporation of self-organized In(Ga)As/GaAs quantum dot heterostructures, have emerged as a new class of building blocks for nanophotonics. In this paper we present an overview of the recent developments of In(Ga)As/GaAs quantum dot tube ring resonators and lasers, including their fabrication, characterization, and direct integration with Si waveguides. The perspectives and challenges for using self-organized quantum dot tubes to realize new functionalities in Si-photonics, sensing, and micro/nano-fluidics are also discussed. (c) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
