A method for forming quantum dots includes forming a superlattice structure that includes at least one nanostrip protruding from the superlattice structure, providing a quantum dot substrate, transferring the at least one nanostrip to the quantum dot substrate, and removing at least a portion of the at least one nanostrip from the substrate. The superlattice structure is formed by providing a superlattice substrate, forming alternating layers of first and second materials on the substrate to form a stack, cleaving the stack to expose the alternating layers, and etching the exposed alternating layers with an etchant that etches the second material at a greater rate than the first to form the at least one nanostrip.
