Published online zzz 7 PACS 78.55. Et, 42.50.Ct 8 Dynamical properties of exciton localization into spatially isolated localized states with atom-like density of states 9 caused by alloy potential fluctuations were examined. Submicron-sized mesa-shaped structures were prepared to 10 resolve the contribution of single localized states to the optical spectra, which makes it possible to observe atom-like 11 emission lines and to discuss the dynamical properties of exciton energy relaxations by employing micro-time-12 resolved PL measurements. It will be shown that in the samples with high exciton energy transfer efficiency, photo-13 generated excitons can relax into the spatially isolated localized centers with strong zero-dimensional nature, which 14 leads to the limited number of atom-like emission lines.
