We report on comparative studies of CdSe/ZnSe quantum dot structures grown by molecular beam epitaxy either with or without predeposition of a sub-monolayer-thick CdTe layer (stressor). Also we consider the structure grown in a thermal activation mode. Emission properties of individual quantum dots are investigated by micro-photoluminescence spectroscopy using 500 nm apertures opened in a non-transparent gold mask. The density of emitting quantum dots and the spectral width of the single-dot emission lines are estimated.
