势垒硅掺杂对GaN基LED极化电场及其光电性能的影响

势垒硅掺杂对InGaN量子阱中的电场及LED器件的光电性能有着重要的影响。采用6×6 K·P方法计算了不同势垒硅掺杂浓度对量子阱中电场的变化,研究表明当势垒硅掺杂浓度>1e¹⁸ cm^-3时,阱垒界面处的电场强度会变大,这主要是由于硅掺杂浓度过高导致量子阱中界面电荷的聚集。进一步发现随着势垒掺杂浓度的升高,总非辐射复合随之增加,其中俄歇复合增加,而肖克莱-霍尔-里德复合随之减少,这是由于点陷阱的增大形成了缺陷能级。电流电压曲线表明势垒掺杂可有效改善GaN基LED的工作电压,这归于掺杂浓度的提高改善了载流子的传输特性。当掺杂浓度为1e¹⁸ cm^-3时,获得了较高的内量子效率,这主要是由于适当的势垒掺杂降低了量子阱中界面电荷的损耗。

Pseudospin splitting of the energy spectrum of planar polytype graphene-based superlattices

The energy spectrum of planar polytype graphene-based superlattices has been investigated. It is shown that their energy spectrum undergoes pseudospin splitting due to the asymmetry of quantum wells forming the superlattice potential profile.     

Intersubband excitations in single-and double-layer electron systems in a parallel magnetic field

The spectrum of neutral intersubband excitations in single and double quantum wells has been studied by the inelastic light scattering method. It is shown that excitation energies in an external magnetic field have an anisotropic component proportional to the dipole moment of excitations along the growth axis of the quantum wells. Consequently, the measurement of excitation energy in a magnetic field makes it possible to experimentally estimate the quantitative measure of asymmetry of the quantum wells (dipole moment of the intersubband transition). In addition, a parallel magnetic field makes it possible to considerably extend the range of momenta studied since it shifts the dispersion curves in the momentum space by the value of the anisotropic component. A new method is proposed for determining the symmetry of double quantum wells. In asymmetric wells, intersubband excitations appear between the layers and have a large dipole moment along the growth axis. In symmetric wells, the magnetic field itself induces the dipole moment of intersubband excitations so that the excitation spectrum does not change upon magnetic field inversion. Analysis of energy anisotropy in intersubband excitations in double quantum wells makes it possible to determine the symmetry of double wells to a high degree of accuracy.     

Scanning probe microscopy of cleavages of undoped GaInP/AlGaInP and CdS/ZnSSe heterostructures

Cleavages of undoped nanoscale heterostructures with GaInP/AlGaInP and CdS/ZnSSe quantum wells were studied by scanning probe microscopy. A nanorelief formed on the cleavage surface due to elastic stresses in quantum wells was detected by contact methods. The current method yielded more contrast images. It was shown that the current in undoped heterostructures depends on the Schottky barrier on the probe contact with structure layers, the intrinsic carrier concentration in them, the growth substrate doping level, the intensity and spectrum of external illumination.     

Features of the fine structure of the fundamental absorption edge in low-doped semiconductor quantum wells with allowance for the Coulomb gap

Influence of the Coulomb gap on the fine structure of the fundamental absorption edge in quantum wells is studied. Using the interpolation formula, which adequately describes the effect of the Coulomb gap in quantum wells under conditions of low doping regardless of the compensation degree, an explicit expression is obtained for the absorption coefficient related to transitions from the valence level of size quantization to the impurity band. The dependence of the absorption coefficient of a quantum well on the levels of doping and compensation is also studied.     

Mobility of carrier in the single-side and double-side doped square quantum wells

We present a theoretical study of the effect from doping of quantum wells (QWs) on enhancement of the mobility in one-side (1S) and two-side (2S) doped square infinite quantum well. Within the variational approach, we introduce the enhancement factor defined by the ratio of the overall mobility in the 2S doped square quantum wells to that in the 1S doped counterpart with the same sheet carrier density and interface profiles. The enhancement is fixed by the sample parameters such as well width and sheet carrier density. We propose two-side doping as an efficient way to upgrade the quality of QWs. Our theory is able to well reproduce the recent experimental data about low-temperature transport of electrons and holes in one-side and two-side doped square QWs.     

Well width‐dependent electron Raman scattering in ZnS/CdSe cylindrical quantum dot quantum well

Electron Raman scattering (ERS) is investigated in ZnS/CdSe cylindrical quantum dot quantum well (QDQW). The differential cross section (DCS) is calculated as a function of the scattering frequency and the sizes of QDQW. Single parabolic conduction and valence bands are assumed. Different scattering configurations are discussed and the selection rules for the processes are also studied. Singularities in the spectrum are found and interpreted. The ERS studied here can be used to provide direct information about the electron band structure of these systems. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Effect of toroidal moment on a macroscopic self-organization of electrons in the quantum Hall regime

We have studied CR lineshape of terahertz-light-induced current in InAs quantum wells in tilted quantizing magnetic fields. We have observed dramatic modification of the lineshape with increasing of in-plane component of magnetic field as well as with increasing of transverse built-in electric field in the well. Scenario of the modification shows that the energy spectrum asymmetry is determined by so-called toroidal moment of the system and is a function of Landau quantum number. Macroscopic self-organization of electrons under the conditions of quantum Hall effect has also been directly demonstrated in both linear and saturation regimes of the light absorption.
