利用MOCVD技术在GaAs衬底上外延生长了非对称量子阱结构CdSe/ZnSe材料,通过对其稳态变温光谱及变激发功率光谱,研究了其发光特性。稳态光谱表明:在82～141K时,观测到的两个发光峰来源于不同阱层厚度的量子阱激子发光,用对比实验验证了高能侧发光的来源。宽阱发光强度先增加后减小,将其归结为激子隧穿与激子热离化相互竞争的结果。通过Arrhenius拟合,对宽阱激子热激活能进行了计算。82K时变激发功率PL光谱表明:由于激子隧穿的存在,使得窄阱发光峰位不随激发功率变化而变化,宽阱发光峰位随激发功率增加发生了蓝移,并对激子隧穿进行了实验验证。     

Mg掺杂的AlxGa1-xN/GaN超晶格紫外峰的性质

观测了不同Mg含量的Al_xGa_1-xN/GaN超晶格(SLs)样品在不同退火温度和激发强度下的光致发光(PL)光谱。结合霍尔测量,分析了其紫外发射(UVL)峰的起源及相关影响因素。实验发现:同一样品在N₂气氛中高温退火,UVL峰强随退火温度的升高,先增至饱和继而急剧下降,峰位红移;而在相同退火条件下,随着掺杂Mg的流量增加,样品空穴浓度下降,峰强减弱,峰位红移。结果表明:UVL峰是来自于易热分解的浅施主(V_NH)与浅受主(Mg_Ga)之间的跃迁,并受到深施主(Mg_GaV_N)与浅受主(Mg_Ga)自补偿效应的影响。实验上随着PL光谱激发强度的增强,UVL峰位约有260 meV的蓝移,结合超晶格极化场下的能带模型分析,认为这是极化效应导致的锯齿状能带中,V_NH与Mg_Ga之间跃迁方式的改变引起的现象。

MOCVD生长的InGaN合金的发光特性

研究了用金属有机化学气相沉积(MOCVD)法在蓝宝石基底上生长的InGaN样品的发光特性。样品XRD谱中存在InGaN、In、InN相,表明样品中存在相分离;透射谱能看到由于F-P腔调制引起的震荡;相对氙灯激发发光谱,激光激发的发光谱其发光峰位置发生蓝移。由于样品上下表面形成F-P腔,对发光谱产生强烈的调制,在较高强度激发下,在室温下带边峰分成三个峰,其中波长较短的两个发光峰表现出相同的特征,其发光机制可能为以In量子点为局域中心的局域化激子复合发光,而波长较长的发光峰,是一个超线性受激发光峰,其发光机制可能是电子-空穴等离子的散射。不同温度的PL谱表明两个主要的发光峰表现出不同的温度特征,利用F-P干涉理论分析可知,当温度高于120K后样品折射率随着温度的升高而增大。     

Temperature dependent growth of InGaN/GaN single quantum well

InGaN/GaN single quantum well (SQW) structures under various InGaN growth temperatures have been grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), the surface morphologies and optical properties are investigated. The radius of the typical V-pits on the SQW surface is affected by the InGaN well-temperature, and the surface roughness decreased as the well-temperature reduced. Room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) and cathode luminescence (CL) shows the quantum well and quantum dot (QD)-like localized state light emission of the SQWs grown at 700 and 690 °C, respectively, whereas the samples grown at 670 and 650 °C present hybrid emission peaks. Excitation power dependent PL spectra indicates the QD-like localized state emission dominates at low excitation power and the quantum well emission starts to take over at high excitation power.     

Phonon–replica transitions in InGaN/GaN quantum well structures

A side-bump feature in a photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of an InGaN compound was widely observed. With reasonable fitting to PL spectra with three Gaussian distributions, the temperature variations of the peak positions, integrated PL intensities, and peak widths of the main and first side peaks of three InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well samples with different nominal indium contents are shown and interpreted. The existence of the side peaks is attributed to phonon–replica transitions. The variations of the peak position separations and the decreasing trends of the first side peak widths beyond certain temperatures in those samples were explained with the requirement of phonon momentum condition for phonon–replica transitions. In the sample with 25% nominal indium content, the phonon–replica transition could become stronger than the direct transition of localized states.

Photoluminescence of InAs Self-Organized Quantum Dots Formation on InP Substrate by MOCVD

In this letter, we present results of photoluminescence (PL) emission from single-layer and multilayer InAs self-organized quantum dots (QDs), which were grown on (001) InP substrate. The room temperature PL peak of the single-layer QDs locates at 1608 nm, and full width at half-maximum (FWHM) of the PL peak is 71 meV. The PL peak of the multilayer QDs locates at 1478 nm, PL intensity of which is stronger than that of single-layer QDs. The single-layer QD PL spectra also display excited state emission and state filling as the excitation intensity is increased. Low temperature PL spectra show a weak peak between the peaks of QDs and wetting layer (WL), which suggests the recombination between electrons in the WL and holes in the dots.     

Fermi edge singularity evidence from photoluminescence spectroscopy of AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs pseudomorphic HEMTs grown on (3 1 1)A GaAs substrates

InGaAs/AlGaAs/GaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (P-HEMT) structures were grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) on (3 1 1)A GaAs substrates with different well widths, and studied by photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy as a function of temperature and excitation density.The PL spectra are dominated by one or two spectral bands, corresponding, respectively, to one or two populated electron sub-bands in the InGaAs quantum well. An enhancement of PL intensity at the Fermi level energy (E_F) in the high-energy tail of the PL peak is clearly observed and associated with the Fermi edge singularity (FES). This is practically detected at the same energy for all samples, in contrast with energy transitions in the InGaAs channel, which are shifted to lower energy with increasing channel thickness. PL spectra at low temperature and low excitation density are used to optically determine the density of the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in the InGaAs channel for different thicknesses. The results show an enhancement of the 2DEG density when the well width increases, in good agreement with our previous theoretical study.     

Analysis of localization effect in blue-violet light emitting InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells with different well widths

Four blue-violet light emitting InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well(MQW) structures with different well widths are grown by metal–organic chemical vapor deposition. The carrier localization effect in these samples is investigated mainly by temperature-dependent photoluminescence measurements. It is found that the localization effect is enhanced as the well width increases from 1.8 nm to 3.6 nm in our experiments. The temperature induced PL peak blueshift and linewidth variation increase with increasing well width, implying that a greater amplitude of potential fluctuation as well as more localization states exist in wider wells. In addition, it is noted that the broadening of the PL spectra always occurs mainly on the low-energy side of the PL spectra due to the temperature-induced band-gap shrinkage, while in the case of the widest well, a large extension of the spectral curve also occurs in the high energy sides due to the existence of more shallow localized centers.     

GaNAs/GaAs量子阱的激子局域化以及退局域化

我们利用光荧光(PL)以及时间分辨光谱(TRPL)研究了用MBE生长在GaAs衬底上的GaNAs/GaAs量子阱的激子局域化以及退局域化.研究发现,在低温下用连续光(Cw)激发,由于GaNAs中势振荡所产生的局域激子发光是所测量到光谱的主要发光来源.然而在脉冲激发下,情况完全不同.在高载流子密度激发或者高温下GaNAs/GaAs量子阱中例外,一个高能端的PL峰成为了主要的发光来源.通过研究,我们将这个新的发光峰指认为量子阱中非局域激子复合的PL峰.这个发光峰在温度和激发强度的变化过程中与局域激子相互竞争.我们相信这一过程也是许多文献所报道的在InGaN和AlGaN等氮化物中经常观测到的发光峰位随温度"S"形变化的主要根源.     

Growth and optical characterization of single quantum well structure of submonolayer ZnS/ZnTe

Single quantum wells of submonolayer ZnS/ZnTe were grown between ZnTe layers using hot wall epitaxy method with fast-movable substrate configuration. As ZnS well widths decrease from 1 to 0.15 monolayer, the photoluminescence peaks shift to higher energies from 2.049 to 2.306 eV, and the photoluminescence intensities increase. As ZnS well width decrease, the PL spectra show the lower-energy tails and consequently the increased PL FWHMs. This is a result of a convolution of two PL peaks from two-dimensional and zero-dimensional quantum islands, supported by a still lived lower-energy peaks of zero-dimensional quantum islands above 50 K. The energy shift in the power dependence of photoluminescence spectra is proportional to the third root of the excitation density. These behaviors can be described by the formation of submonolayer type-II ZnS/ZnTe quantum well structure, and the coexistence of two-dimensional and one-dimensional islands in ZnS layers.     

Effect of annealing on photoluminescence and microstructures of InGaN／GaN multi-quantum well with Mg-doped p-type GaN

InGaN/GaN multi-quantum well structure with Mg-doped p-type GaN was grown by low-pressure metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy. After rapid-thermal-annealing at 700 and 900${^\circ}$C, both the red-shift and the blue-shift of the photoluminescence (PL) peak, the decreased and the enhancement of the PL intensity were observed. The transmission electron microscopic images showed that InGaN multi-quantum-dots-like (MQD-like) structures with dimensions less than 5$\tm$10nm were formed in InGaN wells. The changes of PL spectra could be tentatively attributed to the competition between the red-shift mechanism of the quantum-confined Stark effect and the blue-shift mechanism of the quantum size effect due to MQD-like structures.
