The method further comprises initiating growth of a first III-V structure in the trench, continuing growth out of the trench on top of the bottom part, growing epitaxially a sacrificial second III-V structure on the top part of the first III-V structure, and growing epitaxially a third III-V structure on the sacrificial second III-V structure. The third III-V structure comprises a top III-V layer. The method further comprises physically disconnecting a first part of the top layer from a second part thereof, and contacting the sacrificial second III-V structure with the liquid etching medium.

A semiconductor device comprising a nominally or exactly or equivalent orientation silicon substrate on which is grown directly a <100 nm thick nucleation layer (NL) of a III-V compound semiconductor, other than GaP, followed by a buffer layer of the same compound, formed directly on the NL, optionally followed by further III-V semiconductor layers, followed by at least one layer containing III-V compound semiconductor quantum dots, optionally followed by further III-V semiconductor layers.
