Population relaxation time of confined as well as interface optical phonons in a series of GaAs-AlAs multiple quantum well structures has been measured by picosecond time-resolved Raman spectroscopy. Our experimental results have shown that (1) within the experimental accuracy, the population relaxation time of confined optical phonons in GaAs-AlAs multiple quantum well structures is independent of GaAs well-width and is given by 6±1 ps at T=10 K; (2) the population relaxation times of both GaAs -like and AlAs -like interface optical phonons increase as GaAs well-width increases from 20 Å to 100 Å. These experimental results are compared with theoretical calculations recently carried out by Gupta and Ridley (Ref. 3).

AbstractThe photoluminescence and Raman scattering of {|(CdSe)1 (ZnSe)3|14-(ZnSe)130} × 5 multiple quantum well structure have been investigated at 77 K and under hydrostatic pressure up to 7 GPa. Resonant excitations have been accomplished by turning the electronic levels under hydrostatic high pressure. Two kind of excitons and ZnSe-like LO phonon modes as well as their pressure behavior are presented.
