The artificial random Gaussian-type potential built in the GaAs/AlGaAs superlattices grown by molecular beam epitaxy was explored by various methods. The effect of the intentional disorder was shown to dominate intrinsic superlattice imperfections and its impact on the electronic properties was found to be in good agreement with the theoretical predictions. It was demonstrated that the modern state of the molecular beam epitaxy allows for a growth of the superstructured materials with well-defined disorder strength. 相似文献

This report describes photoluminescence (PL) properties of PbTe/CdTe single quantum wells grown on (1 0 0)-oriented GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. Despite the differences in crystal structure and thermal expansion coefficient between PbTe and CdTe, an intense mid-infrared emission was observed even at higher temperatures than 300 K. Multiple peaks, however, were found in the PL spectra, and the analysis of the PL peak energy dependence on temperature revealed an important role of the thermal mismatch. 相似文献

We report on photoluminescence measurements of vertically stacked InAs/GaAs quantum dots grown by molecular beam epitaxy on focused ion beam patterned hole arrays with varying array spacing. Quantum dot emission at 1.24 eV was observed only on patterned regions, demonstrating preferential nucleation of optically active dots at desired locations and below the critical thickness for dot formation at these growth conditions. Photoluminescence measurements as a function of varying focused ion beam irradiated hole spacing showed that the quantum dot emission intensity increased with decreasing array periodicity, consistent with increasing dot density. 相似文献

A typical porous structure with pores diameters ranging from 10 to 50 nm has been obtained by electrochemical etching of (1 0 0) heavily doped p-type GaAs substrate in HF solution. Room temperature photoluminescence (PL) investigations of the porous GaAs (π-GaAs) reveal the presence of two PL bands, I1 and I2, located at 1.403 and 1.877 eV, respectively. After GaAs capping, the I1 and I2 PL bands exhibit opposite shift trends. However, the emission efficiency of these two bands is not strongly modified. Low temperature PL of capped porous GaAs versus injection levels shows that the I1 PL band exhibits a red shift while the I2 PL band exhibits a blue shift with increasing injection levels. The I2 PL band intensity temperature dependence shows an anomalous behaviour and its energy location shows a blue shift as temperature increases. The observed PL bands act independently and are attributed to electron – hole recombination in porous GaAs and to the well-known quantum confinement effects in GaAs nanocrystallites. The I2 PL band excitation power and temperature dependencies were explained by the filling effect of GaAs nanocrystallites energy states. 相似文献

We report on the fabrication of GaAs based p–i–n solar cells containing 5 and 10 layers of type II GaSb quantum rings grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Solar cells containing quantum rings show improved efficiency at longer wavelengths into the near-IR extending up to 1500 nm and show enhanced short-circuit current under 1 sun illumination compared to a GaAs control cell. A reduction in the open-circuit voltage is observed due to the build-up of internal strain. The MBE growth, formation and photoluminescence of single and stacked layers of GaSb/GaAs quantum rings are also presented. 相似文献

The effects of AlGaAs capping on InAs quantum dots self-assembled on GaAs are investigated. It is observed that, the photoluminescence intensity becomes stronger up to twice when Al is incorporated into the cap layer. In the mean time, the full width at half maximum of the photoluminescence spectrum becomes narrower, the peak splitting between the ground and first excited exciton levels becomes wider, and the photoluminescence peak wavelength becomes longer. With considerations of the increased barrier height and the changed microstructures of the quantum dots induced by AlGaAs capping, the mechanisms of the observed improvements are discussed. 相似文献

We have characterized the properties of three AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor structures with two different well widths fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy on (0 0 1) GaAs substrates with different threading dislocation densities using room temperature photoreflectance (PR) and photoluminescence (PL). The samples were denoted as A, B and C with well widths of 140, 160 and 160 Å, respectively. Samples A and B were grown on substrates with lower threading dislocation densities. For samples B and C, the well width exceeds the pseudomorphic limit so that there is some strain relaxation and related misfit dislocations, as determined from X-ray measurements. In order to detect the anisotropic strain of the misfit dislocations related to strain relaxation, the PR measurements were performed for incident light polarized along [1 1 0] and
directions. Evidence for the influence of the strain relaxation upon the relaxed channel was provided by the observed anisotropy of the polarized PR features and reduction of the intensity of PL signals in the InGaAs channel layer. The lowest lying intersubband transition has been confirmed by a comparison of the PR and PL spectra. Signals have been observed from every region of the sample making it possible to evaluate the In and Al compositions, channel width and two-dimensional electron gas density as well as the properties of the GaAs/AlGaAs multiple quantum well buffer layer. 相似文献

The bilayer InAs/In0.36Ga0.64As/GaAs(311B) quantum dots (QDs), including one InAs buried quantum dot (BQD) layer and the other InAs surface quantum dot (SQD) layer, have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The optical properties of these three samples have been studied by the piezoreflectance (PzR) spectroscopy. The PzR spectra do not exhibit only the optical transitions originated from the InAs BQDs, but the features originated from the InAs SQDs. After the InAs SQDs have been removed chemically, those optical transitions from InAs SQDs have been demonstrated clearly by investigating the PzR spectra of the residual InAs BQDs in these samples. The great redshift of these interband transitions of InAs SQDs has been well discussed. Due to the suitable InAs SQD sizes and the thickness of In0.36Ga0.64As layer, the interband transition of InAs SQDs has been shifted to ∼1.55 μm at 77 K. 相似文献

In the recombination spectra of AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures, a peculiar and asymmetric photoluminescence (PL) band F has previously been reported [Aloulou et al., Mater. Sci. Eng. B 96 (2002) 14] to be due to recombinations of confined electrons from the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) formed at AlGaAs/GaAs interface in asymmetric quantum well (AQW). Detailed experiments are reported here on GaAs/Al0.31Ga0.69As/GaAs:δSi/Al0.31Ga0.69As/GaAs samples with different spacer layer thicknesses. We show that the band F is the superposition of two PL bands F′ and F″ associated, respectively, to AQW and a symmetric quantum well (SQW). In the low excitation regime, the F′ band present a blue shift (4.4 meV) followed by important red shift (16.5 meV) when increasing optical excitation intensity. The blue shift in energy is interpreted in terms of optical control of the 2DEG density in the AQW while the red shift is due to the narrowing of the band gaps caused by the local heating of the sample and band bending modification for relatively high-optical excitation intensity. Calculation performed using self-consistent resolution of the coupled Schrödinger–Poisson equations are included to support the interpretation of the experimental data. 相似文献

GaInNAs/GaAs quantum wells grown by molecular beam epitaxy under different arsenic pressures have been studied using photoluminescence (PL), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and secondary-ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). The best optical properties are achieved with the V/III beam equivalent pressure ratio (V/IIIBEP) of 10. The PL emission wavelength remains unchanged for 8V/IIIBEP12, suggesting that within this range neither the alloy composition nor the nitrogen sticking coefficient is changed. For the lower and higher V/IIIBEP ratios the PL wavelength is red-shifted or blue-shifted, respectively. The XRD results indicate that the nitrogen incorporation into the group-V sub-lattice is enhanced at low As pressures and reduced at high As pressures. The PL behaviour can thus be understood as a competition between As and N adatoms in occupying anion lattice sites. 相似文献

InAs quantum dots (QDs) on GaAs (0 0 1) substrates were grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) using two growth temperatures. Photoluminescence (PL) pump power dependence measurements at low temperature were carried out for sample grown at higher temperature (520 °C). With increasing excitation density, the ground-state transition energy is found to decrease by 8 meV, while the excited-state transition energies exhibit resonance behaviour. The redshift of the ground-state emission was related to the band-gap renomalization (BGR) effect whereas the blueshift of the excited-state emissions was assigned to the compensation between filling of fine structure states and BGR effects. Using a quasi-resonant PL measurement, we have shown that the renormalization of the band-gap had to occur in the QD barrier. 相似文献

Self-assembled GaSb quantum dots (QDs) with a photoluminescence wavelength longer than 1.3 μm were successfully grown by suppressing the replacement of As and Sb on the surface of the GaSb QDs. This result means that GaSb can thus join InAs or GaInAs as a suitable material for QD lasers for optical communications. 相似文献

Quasi-continuous-wave operation of AlGaAs/GaAs-based quantum cascade lasers (λ9 μm) up to 165 K is reported. The strong temperature dependence of the threshold current density and its higher value in high duty cycle is investigated in detail. The self-heating effect in the active region is explored by changing the operating duty cycles. The degradation of lasing performance with temperature is explained. 相似文献

The structural, optical, and electrical properties of these films are studied and compared with those of heterostructures grown on thick Si(111) substrates. Field effect transistors have been realized, and they demonstrate the potentialities of III–V nitrides grown on these advanced substrates. 相似文献

Summary The effects on the luminescence lineshape of the spatial and temporal inhomogeneities of the electron-hole plasma generated
by strong laser pulses in GaAs/AlGaAs multiple quantum well structures are experimentally investigated. It is found that inhomogeneities
strongly affect the luminescence spectra and must be taken into account for a correct interpretation of the experimental data.
The lineshape of the luminescence spectra is analysed using a statistical model that includes, in a simple way, the spatial
and temporal inhomogeneities of the laser pulses used for excitation. A fair agreement is obtained with the experimental data;
at the same time the values of the fit parameters turn out to be rather sensitive to the model assumed for describing the
inhomogeneities. Therefore, caution has to be used when inferring plasma properties, such as the carrier density and temperature,
from a lineshape analysis.
Riassunto Si presenta, in questo lavoro, uno studio sperimentale degli effetti delle disomogeneità spaziali e temporali nei plasmi di elettroni e lacune generati da impulsi laser potenti in strutture a buche quantiche di GaAs/AlGaAs. Si trova che tali disomogeneità modificano fortemente gli spettri di fotoluminescenza e devono quindi essere considerate per una corretta interpretazione dei dati sperimentali. La forma di riga degli spettri di luminescenza viene analizzata mediante un modello statistico che include, in modo semplice, le disomogeneità spaziali e temporali degli impulsi laser usati per l’eccitazione. Si ottiene un accordo soddisfacente con i dati sperimentali e si trova che i valori dei parametri ottenuti dal fit dipendono in modo sensibile dal modello assunto per la descrizione delle disomogeneità. Grande cautela deve essere quindi usata nel dedurre le proprietà del plasma fotogenerato a partire da una analisi delle forme di riga.相似文献

本文报道了采用分子束外延技术制备的三色InAs/GaAs量子点红外探测器. 器件采用nin型结构, 吸收区结构是在InGaAs量子阱中生长含有AlGaAs插入层的InAs量子点, 器件在77 K下的红外光电流谱有三个峰值: 6.3, 10.2和11 μm. 文中分析了它们的跃迁机制, 并且分别进行了指认. 因为有源区采用了不对称结构, 所以器件在外加偏压正负方向不同时, 光电流谱峰值的强度存在一些差异. 不论在正偏压或者负偏压下, 当偏压达到较高值, 再进一步增大偏压时, 都出现了对应于连续态的跃迁峰强度明显下降的现象, 这是由量子点基态与阱外连续态的波函数交叠随着偏压进一步增大而迅速减小导致的. 相似文献
