✦ Synopsis


The absorption properties in hetero-polarization GaN/Al x Ga 1Γ€x N (x ΒΌ 0:06) quantum well structures are studied in reflection, photoreflection, and photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy and compared with the results of band structure calculations. Above the energy of the main luminescence transitions we observe three distinct absorption thresholds. From Franz-Keldysh oscillations in the absorption spectra we directly derive the value of the acting electric field within the barriers. Upon this field strength we base a calculation of the electronic band structure and interband transition energies. The results suggest that the observed absorption edges are the AlGaN band edge and two quantized levels involving the crystal-field spilt-off hole.

We report a low temperature photoluminescence study on two identical Al 0.13 Ga 0.87 N/GaN single quantum wells (QWs), which are pseudomorphically grown on either a GaN or an AlGaN buffer layer. The red shift of the QW emission due to the quantum confined Stark effect, is found to be strongest in th

An InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well structure grown by low pressure MOCVD on c-Al 2 O 3 substrate is investigated using spectral-time-resolved cathodoluminescence microscopy (CL). At 6 K the laterally integrated CL spectrum shows a very efficient blue emission from the InGaN multiple quantum well cen
