Dependence of the photoluminescence energy and carrier lifetime of the carrier density in nitride quantum well
We investigated the high-carrier screening of macroscopic polarization fields in GaN quantum wells (QWs) using a variational wave function for electrons and holes. In particular, we studied of the influence of free-carrier screening on the photoluminescence (PL) energy emission and carrier lifetime in the QW. We show that the energy transition between electrons and holes are explained well by t...

متن کاملFar-infrared radiation response of antenna-coupled quantum-effect devices
This thesis explores the high-frequency transport characteristics of two quantum effect devices: the quantum point contact and the lateral dual gate field-effect transistor (FET). Electron transport in these devices is predominantly phase coherent, since transport takes place in two-dimensional electron gas with high mobility. Phasecoherent devices can detect radiation with quantum-limited sens...
متن کاملK far - infrared hot - electron multi - quantum - well detectors
The responsivity to long wavelength ~513 and 1253 mm! far-infrared ~FIR! radiation and the root mean square noise voltage has been measured for one bulk GaAs and two GaAs/AlGaAs multiquantum-well ~MQW! hot-electron photodetectors as a function of temperature from 4.49 to 77 K. From these data the noise-equivalent power ~NEP! was determined for each device over the same temperature range. The MQ...
متن کاملBiological activities caused by far-infrared radiation.
Contrary to previous presumption, accumulated evidence indicates that far-infrared rays are biologically active. A small ceramic disk that emits far-infrared rays (4-16 microns) has commonly been applied to a local spot or a whole part of the body for exposure. Pioneering attempts to experimentally analyze an effect of acute and chronic radiation of far-infrared rays on living organisms have de...
