AbstractUsing Photoreflectance (PR) measurements, we have investigated In0.53Ga0.47As single quantum wells (SQW) with In0.52Al0.48As barriers grown by MBE on InP substrates. Unusual lineshapes of PR spectra are observed for the fundamental transition in some of the SQW. This phenomenon is shown to be independent on the widths of both the SQW (5nm or 10nm) and the surface barrier layer (between 65nm and 300nm). PR spectra are recorded at different temperatures and in different samples, as well as with a secondary pump laser beam. From these measurements, it is concluded that interface defects exist in the SQW grown at 525°C without growth interruption. Such defects are clearly evidenced in room temperature PR experiments and confirmed by PL measurements.

ABSTRACTRoom temperature ellipsometric measurements of low dimensional TlMeX2 (Me=Ga, In; X=S,Se,Te) were performed in the photon energy range 1.5–6.5e V.Obtained ellipsometric data were then treated with allowance for optical anisotropy of the above materials. The components of dielectric function tensor were determined. The structures of the obtained dielectric function are interpreted in terms of the angle resolved photoemission and band structure results. The contribution of the atomic states of each atom (Tl, In, Se) in the band states in the point M of the Brillouin zone is traced back using LCAO analysis. An ultraviolet window in the joint density of electronic states of some of TlMeX2 is disclosed and substantiated to be a sign of ferroelectricity at room temperature. For the first time the nanorods of TlMeX2 are demonstrated.

ABSTRACTIn this work, the growth and properties of GaAsSbN single quantum wells are investigated. The heterostructures were grown on GaAs substrates in an elemental solid source molecular beam epitaxy system with a RF plasma nitrogen source. A systematic study has been carried out to determine the influence of growth temperature on the optical properties of the layers. For reference low temperature photoluminescence (PL) characteristics of the GaAsSb/GaAs QWs as a function of Sb is also presented. A significant increase in PL intensity with a corresponding blue shift in emission energy and a decrease in full width at half maximum (FWHM) has been observed on annealing the GaAsSbN/GaAs sample in a nitrogen ambient at 700°C. PL emission wavelength as long as 1.52 μm at room temperature has been obtained on annealed samples.
