In the Rapid Research Letter on p. 76 ff. Pilkyung Moon et al. theoretically investigate the strain profiles and the electronic structure of a self‐assembled quantum ring. The authors report anomalous strain relaxation and an enhancement of the light‐hole character due to the GaAs layer on the InAs/InGaAs quantum ring. The analysis of the band structure of the strained InGaAs compound explains the half‐well and half‐barrier character of the strained GaAs layer embedded in the InP matrix.
