چکیده

It is shown that the dramatic changes in threshold current density with changing active region growth temperature in 1.3μm GaInNAs-based lasers can be attributed almost entirely to changes in the defect related monomolecular recombination current in the optically active material. In addition, growth temperature dependent changes in the QW morphology are shown to have a significant influence on the transport properties of the structure.

Investigation of temperature-dependent photoluminescence in multi-quantum wells

Photoluminescence (PL) is a nondestructive and powerful method to investigate carrier recombination and transport characteristics in semiconductor materials. In this study, the temperature dependences of photoluminescence of GaAs-AlxGa1-xAs multi-quantum wells samples with and without p-n junction were measured under both resonant and non-resonant excitation modes. An obvious increase of photol...

Carrier relaxation and recombination in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum heterostructures and nanostructures probed with time-resolved cathodoluminescence

We have examined the kinetics of carrier relaxation in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells ~QWs!, quantum wires ~QWRs!, and quantum boxes ~QBs! with time-resolved cathodoluminescence ~CL!. In the cases of QWRs and QBs, the nanostructures were grown via a size-reducing growth approach on pre-patterned GaAs~001! substrates composed of stripes and mesas, respectively. The growth involved deposition of multi...
