โฆ Synopsis
We show that the internal quantum yield of a GaAs/AlAs superlattice (SL) can be directly obtained from the height of the step observed in the photoluminescence (PL) excitation spectrum of the underlying GaAs layer when the excitation energy is scanned across the SL transition. From a study of the dependence of the SL and GaAs PL on the excitation power density and energy and on temperature, we are able to specify the conditions of applicability of this method. The importance of power non-linearities, reabsorption and photon recycling effects are discussed.

Large polysilane spherulites have been observed. The spherulites were prepared by controlling the removal rate of solvents from poly(n-butyl-n-pentylsilane) under a xylene atmosphere. The diameter of the spherulites was greater than 0.1 mm. The structure of the spherulites was compared with that of
