采用推广的LLP方法研究了ZnSe/ZnS抛物量子阱中激子的极化子效应。考虑电子和空穴与LO声子的相互作用,得到了激子基态能量和结合能随阱宽的变化关系。结果表明,阱宽较小时,能量随着阱宽的增大而急剧减小;阱宽较大时,能量减小的比较缓慢。和我们以前的工作对比,我们发现ZnSe/ZnS抛物量子阱对激子的束缚强于GaAs/Ga1-xAlxAs抛物量子阱。     

抛物量子阱中束缚极化子的极化势和结合能

利用改进的Lee-Low-Pines(LLP)方法,用变分法计算了无限深抛物量子阱中同时考虑与体纵光学声子和界面纵光学声子相互作用的束缚极化子的极化势和结合能.数值计算得出:阱宽较大时极化势很小,阱宽较小时极化势较大,所以对于较窄的抛物阱必须考虑极化势.对于给定阱宽的抛物阱,随着远离阱中心极化势迅速减小,当到达阱的界面附近极化势又开始增大.阱宽较小时,束缚极化子的结合能随着阱宽L的增大而急剧减小;阱宽较大时,结合能减小的非常缓慢,最后接近体材料中的三维值.     

导带弯曲对有限深GaN/Ga1-xAlxN球形量子点中束缚极化子的影响及其压力效应

采用三角势近似界面导带弯曲,研究了有限高势垒GaN/Ga1-x Al x N球形量子点中束缚极化子的结合能及其压力效应。数值计算了杂质态与声子之间相互作用对结合能的影响,同时与方形势垒进行了比较。结果表明,随着电子面密度的增加,导带弯曲效应增强,束缚极化子结合能逐渐下降。当电子面密度n s=(6.0,8.0)×1011/cm2且量子点半径R>10 nm时,束缚极化子的结合能趋近于一个相同且较小的值。结合能的极化效应主要来自杂质与光学声子相互作用的贡献。

纤锌矿氮化镓基阶梯量子阱中界面声子的色散谱与散射率

本文理论分析了纤锌矿GaN-基阶梯量子阱中的电子-界面光学声子散射性质。阶梯量子阱中的解析的界面声子态及Frhlich电子-声子相互作用哈密顿被导出了。在考虑强内建电场效应及能带的非抛物性特性的情况下,阶梯量子阱结构精确解析的电子本征态也被给出了。以一个四层纤锌矿AlN-基阶梯量子阱为例进行了数值计算。结果发现,系统中存在四支界面光学声子模,这一观察明显不同于对称的GaN/AlN单量子阱与双量子阱的情况。这一差异被归结为阶梯量子结构的非对称性。GaN-基阶梯量子阱中的子带内散射率与子带间散射率比GaAs-基阶梯量子阱的结果大一个数量级,这被归因于GaN-基晶体大的电子-声子耦合常数。GaN-基阶梯量子阱的子带内散射率表现出与GaAs-基体系类似的结构参数依赖关系,但两类体系的子带间散射率对阶梯量子阱结构参数依赖则明显不同,这被归结为GaN-基阶梯量子阱结构中强的内建电场效应及带的非抛物性。结果还表明,高频界面声子模相对于低频界面声子模,对散射率的贡献更大。     

无限深量子阱中强耦合极化子的基态结合能

研究了无限深量子阱中极化子的基态性质,采用线性组合算符和变分相结合的方法导出了强耦合极化子的振动频率λ、基态能量E₀和基态结合能E_b,讨论了阱宽L和电子-LO声子耦合强度α对强耦合极化子的振动频率λ、基态能量E₀和基态结合能E_b的影响。通过数值计算,结果表明:强耦合极化子的振动频率和基态结合能随阱宽L的增大而减小,随电子-LO声子耦合强度α的增强而增大;基态能量随阱宽L的增大而减小,其绝对值随电子-LO声子耦合强度α的增强而增大;当量子阱阱宽L趋近于无限大和无限小两种极限情况下,分别与三维和二维极化子的结果相一致。     

纤锌矿GaN/AlxGa1-xN量子阱中极化子能量

采用LLP变分方法研究了纤锌矿GaN/Al_xGa_1-xN量子阱材料中极化子的能级,给出极化子基态能量、第一激发态能量和第一激发态到基态的跃迁能量与量子阱宽度和量子阱深度变化的函数关系。研究结果表明,极化子基态能量、第一激发态能量和跃迁能量随着阱宽L的增大而开始急剧减小,然后缓慢下降,最后接近于体材料GaN中的相应值。基态能量和第一激发态到基态的跃迁能量随着量子阱深度的增加而逐渐增加,窄阱时这一趋势更明显。纤锌矿氮化物量子阱中电子-声子相互作用对能量的贡献比较大,这一值(约40meV)远远大于闪锌矿(GaAs/Al_xGa_1-xAs)量子阱中相应的值(约3meV)。因此讨论GaN/Al_xGa_1-xN量子阱中电子态问题时应考虑电子-声子相互作用。

Phonon effect on binding energies of impurity states in cylindrical quantum wires of polar semiconductors under an electric field

Phonon effect on hydrogenic impurity states in cylindrical quantum wires of polar semiconductors under an applied electric field is studied theoretically by a variational approach. The binding energies are calculated as functions of the transverse dimension of the quantum wire, and the donor-impurity position under different fields. The electron–phonon interaction is considered in the calculations by taking both the confined bulk longitudinal optical phonons and interface optical phonons as well as the impurity-ion–phonon coupling. The numerical results for the CdTe and GaAs quantum wires are given and discussed as examples. It is confirmed that the electron–phonon interaction obviously reduces both the binding energy and the Stark energy-shift of the bound polarons in quantum wires.     

Propagating Optical Phonon Modes and Their Electron-Phonon Interaction Hamiltonians in Asymmetric Wurtzite Nitride Semiconductor Quantum Wells

Within the framework of the dielectric continuum model and Loudon's uniaxial crystal model, the properties of frequency dispersion of the propagating (PR) optical phonon modes and the coupling functions of electron-PR phonons interaction in an asymmetrical wurtzite quantum well (QW) are deduced and analyzed via the method of electrostatic potential expanding. Numerical calculation on an asymmetrical Al_0.25Ga_0.75 N/GaN/Al_0.15Ga_0.85N wurtzite QW were performed. The results reveal that there are infinite branches of PR phonon modes in the systems. The behaviors of frequency forbidden of PR modes in the asymmetric QWs have been clearly observed. The mathematical and physical origins for these features have been analyzed in depth. The PR optical phonon branches have been distinguished and labelled reasonably in terms of the oscillating properties of the PR modes in the well-layer material. Moreover, the amplitudes and frequency properties of the electron-PR modes coupling functions in the barrier and well materials have also been analyzed from both of the mathematical and physical viewpoints.     

Al0.6Ga0.4N/GaN/Al0.3Ga0.7N/Al0.6Ga0.4N量子阱中的Rashba自旋劈裂

正如人们所知, 可以通过电场或者设计非对称的半导体异质结构来调控体系的结构反演不对称性(SIA)和Rashba自旋劈裂. 本文研究了Al_0.6Ga_0.4N/GaN/Al_0.3Ga_0.7N/Al_0.6Ga_0.4N量子阱中第一子带的Rashba 系数和Rashba自旋劈裂随Al_0.3Ga_0.7N插入层(右阱)的厚度w_s以及外加电场的变化关系, 其中GaN层(左阱)的厚度为40-w_s Å. 发现随着w_s的增加, 第一子带的Rashba系数和Rashba自旋劈裂首先增加, 然后在w_s>20 Å 时它们迅速减小, 但是w_s>30 Å时Rashba自旋劈裂减小得更快, 因为此时k_f也迅速减小. 阱层对Rashba系数的贡献最大, 界面的贡献次之且随w_s变化不是太明显, 垒层的贡献相对比较小. 然后, 我们假w_s=20 Å, 发现外加电场可以很大程度上调制该体系的Rashba系数和Rashba自旋劈裂, 当外加电场的方向同极化电场方向相同(相反)时, 它们随着外加电场的增加而增加(减小). 当外加电场从-1.5×10⁸ V·m^-1到1.5×10⁸ V· m^-1变化时, Rashba系数随着外加电场的改变而近似线性变化, Rashba自旋劈裂先增加得很快, 然后近似线性增加, 最后缓慢增加. 研究结果表明可以通过改变GaN层和Al_0.3Ga_0.7N层的相对厚度以及外加电场来调节Al_0.6Ga_0.4N/GaN/Al_0.3Ga_0.7N/Al_0.6Ga_0.4N量子阱中的Rashba 系数和Rashba自旋劈裂, 这对于设计自旋电子学器件有些启示.     

Built-in electric field effect on cyclotron mass of magnetopolarons in a wurtzite In_xGa_（1-x）N/GaN quantum well

The cyclotron mass of magnetopolarons in wurtzite In x Ga 1 x N/GaN quantum well is studied in the presence of an external magnetic field by using the Larsen perturbation method.The effects of the built-in electric field and different phonon modes including interface,confined and half-space phonon modes are considered in our calculation.The results for a zinc-blende quantum well are also given for comparison.It is found that the main contribution to the transition energy comes from half-space and interface phonon modes when the well width is very small while the confined modes play a more important role in a wider well due to the location of the electron wave function.As the well width increases,the cyclotron mass of magnetopolarons first increases to a maximum and then decreases either with or without the built-in electric field in the wurtzite structure and the built-in electric field slightly reduces the cyclotron mass.The variation of cyclotron mass in a zinc-blende structure is similar to that in a wurtzite structure.With the increase of external magnetic field,the cyclotron mass of polarons almost linearly increases.The cyclotron frequency of magnetopolarons is also discussed.     

Effects of electric field and size on the electron-phonon interaction in a spherical quantum dot with impurity

The effects of electric field and size on the electron-phonon interaction with an on-center impurity in a Zn_1?x Cd _x Se/ZnSe spherical quantum dot are studied, taking into account the interactions with confined, half-space and surface optical phonons. In addition, the interaction between impurity and phonons has also been considered. The results show that the electron-confined, electron-half-space, and electron-surface optical phonon interaction energies are all negative. The electron-confined optical phonon interaction energy is weakened by the electric field, but the electron-half-space and electron-surface optical phonon interaction energies are strengthened by it. In particular, the electron-surface optical phonon interaction depends strongly on the electric field, and it will vanish when the electric field is absent. It is also found that the electron-confined optical phonon interaction and electron-impurity “exchange” interaction energies reach a peak values as the quantum dot radius increases and then gradually decrease, but the electron-half-space optical phonon interaction energy exponentially quickly approaches 0 as the quantum dot radius increases.     

Lattice damage in InGaN induced by swift heavy ion irradiation

The microstructural responses of In_0.32Ga_0.68N and In_0.9Ga_0.1N films to 2.25 GeV Xe ion irradiation have been investigated using x-ray diffraction, Raman scattering, ion channeling and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the In-rich In_0.9Ga_0.1N is more susceptible to irradiation than the Ga-rich In_0.32Ga_0.68N. Xe ion irradiation with a fluence of 7× 10¹¹ ions·cm^-2 leads to little damage in In_0.32Ga_0.68N but an obvious lattice expansion in In_0.9Ga_0.1N. The level of lattice disorder in In_0.9Ga_0.1N increases after irradiation, due to the huge electronic energy deposition of the incident Xe ions. However, no Xe ion tracks were observed to be formed, which is attributed to the very high velocity of 2.25 GeV Xe ions. Point defects and/or small defect clusters are probably the dominant defect type in Xe-irradiated In_0.9Ga_0.1N.     

Polaron effects on the binding energy of a double donor impurity in quantum wells in an electric field

The binding energy of the single and double bound polaron bound to a helium-type donor impurity in quantum wells (QWs) subject to a perpendicular electric field are calculated by a variational method. The couplings of an electron and the impurity with various phonon modes are considered. The results show that the cumulative effects of the electron–phonon coupling and the impurity–phonon coupling can contribute appreciably to the binding energy for the single bound polaron but only in some severe conditions for the double bound polaron. They also show that the binding energy is sensitive to the electric field strength. The comparison between the binding energies in the case of the impurity placed at the quantum well center and at the quantum well edge is also given.     

Bound polaron in a wurtzite GaN/AlxGa1 − xN ellipsoidal finite-potential quantum dot

A variational method is used to study the ground state of a bound polaron in a weakly oblate wurtzite GaN/Al_xGa_1 − xN ellipsoidal quantum dot. The binding energy of the bound polaron is calculated by taking the electron couples with both branches of LO-like and TO-like phonons due to the anisotropic effect into account. The interaction between impurity and phonons has also been considered to obtain the binding energy of a bound polaron. The results show that the binding energy of bound polaron reaches a peak value as the quantum dot radius increases and then diminishes for the finite potential well. We found that the binding energy of bound polaron is reduced by the phonons effect on the impurity states, the contribution of LO-like phonon to the binding energy is dominant, the anisotropic angle and ellipticity influence on the binding energy are small.     

Energy of a bound polaron in a magnetic field in asymmetric polar semiconductor heterostructures

In this paper, a new modified Hamiltonian of a polaron bound to a donor impurity in asymmetric step quantum wells (QWs) in the presence of an arbitrary magnetic field is given, in which the coupling of an electron with confined bulk-like LO phonons, half-space LO phonons and interface phonon modes is included. Especially, the interaction of the impurity with all possible optical-phonon modes is also considered. The ionization energy of a bound polaron in a magnetic field for asymmetric step QWs are studied by using a modified Lee-Low-Pines (LLP) variational method. The effects of the finite electronic confinement potential and the subband nonparabolicity are also considered. The relative importance of the donor impurity located at the well and the step is analyzed. Our results show the interaction between the impurity and the phonon field in screening the Coulomb interaction has a significant influence on the binding energy of bound polaron. The influence of subband non-parabolicity is appreciable on the bound polaron effects for the narrow well. The binding energy of bound polaron given in this paper are excellent agreement with the experimental measurement.
