چکیده

Transient lens (TL) spectroscopy was developed with sub-micrometer spatial resolution to observe the temporal and special behavior of the nonradiative processes of carrier dynamics in InGaN/GaN quantum wells (QW). We have observed the carrier density dynamics and the thermal dynamics in the TL signals with a nanosecond pulsed laser. We have also observed TL and photoluminescence (PL) signals by using near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM), and find that both PL and TL images are correlated and exhibit submicron scale spatial inhomogeneity.

Terahertz study of ultrafast carrier dynamics in InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells

Ultrafast carrier dynamics in InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells is measured by time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy. The built-in piezoelectric field is initially screened by photoexcited, polarized carriers, and is gradullay restored as the carriers recombine. We observe a nonexponential decay of the carrier density. Time-integrated photoluminescence spectra have shown a complete screening of t...

A study of the optical and polarisation properties of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells grown on a-plane and m-plane GaN substrates

We report on a comparative study of the low temperature emission and polarisation properties of InGaN/GaN quantum wells grown on nonpolar ([Formula: see text]) a-plane and ([Formula: see text]) m-plane free-standing bulk GaN substrates where the In content varied from 0.14 to 0.28 in the m-plane series and 0.08 to 0.21 for the a-plane series. The low temperature photoluminescence spectra from b...

Interface modification of the InGaN/GaN quantum wells: the strain pre-relief effect.

Interface modification by inserting an ultrathin low-temperature GaN layer prior to the growth of high-temperature GaN barriers followed by an annealing process was employed to improve the properties of the InGaN/GaN quantum wells. By detailed studies and comparisons of the surface morphology, photoluminescence and the surface compositions of the InGaN/GaN quantum wells at different growth stag...

Emission dynamics of red emitting InGaN/GaN single quantum wells

Emission dynamics of two InGaN/GaN single quantum well red emitters were investigated through timeresolved photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. A clear phase separation, where a higher energy (blue) emission and a lower energy (red) emission appear simultaneously, was observed. The maximum position of blue emission is consistent with the bandgap value of the InGaN quantum well. As the time afte...

INFLUENCE OF Si-DOPING ON CARRIER LOCALIZATION OF MOCVD-GROWN InGaN/GaN MULTIPLE QUANTUM WELLS

We have systematically studied the influence of Si doping on the optical characteristics of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) using photoluminescence (PL), PL excitation (PLE), and time-resolved PL spectroscopy combined with studies of optically pumped stimulated emission and structural properties from these materials. The MQWs were grown on 1.8-μm-thick GaN layers on c-plane sapphire fil...
