Excitation spectroscopy of the up-converted photoluminescence signal shows identical features from the wetting layer and the single quantum dots, i.e., a band tail coming from the deep states localized at the rough interfaces of the wetting layer quantum well. This observation of photoluminescence up-conversion demonstrates the influence on the quantum dot properties of the environment, and highlights the limitations of the artificial atom model for a semiconductor quantum dot. %G English %L hal-00546746 %U https://hal.science/hal-00546746 %~ UNIV-PARIS7 %~ ENS-PARIS %~ UPMC %~ LPA %~ CNRS %~ PSL %~ UPMC_POLE_2 %~ SORBONNE-UNIVERSITE %~ SU-SCIENCES %~ UNIV-PARIS %~ ENS-PSL %~ ALLIANCE-SU
