AbstractWe demonstrate photoluminescence from self- assembling InGaN quantum dots (QDs), which are artificially fabricated on AlGaN surfaces via metal- organic chemical vapor deposition. InGaN QDs are successfully fabricated by the growth mode transition from step- flow to three dimensional island formation by using anti-surfactant silicon on AlGaN surface. The diameter and height of the fabricated InGaN QDs are estimated to be ˜10nm and ˜5nm, respectively, by an atomic- force- microscope (AFM). Indium mole fraction of InxGal−x N QDs is controlled from x=˜0.22 to ˜0.52 by varying the growth temperature of QDs. Intense photoluminescence is observed even at room temperature from InGaN QDs embedded with the GaN capping layers. In addition, the temperature- dependent energy shift of the photoluminescence peak- energy shows a localization behavior.

AbstractSurface quantum wells of gallium nitride have been grown by Metal Organic Vapor Phase Epitaxy on top of AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. One boundary of the quantum well is vacuum (or air)/GaN interface, the other is GaN/AlGaN interface, and the width of the quantum well is the thickness of gallium nitride cap, and quantum confinement is demonstrate by the energy shift in photoluminescence, and cathodoluminescence as the GaN cap thickness is varied. The efficiency of the quantum well emission is sensitive to the surface environment and resulting surface recombination velocity. In this study the surface is altered by surface preparation treatments and resulting in changes in the luminescence. The changes in the efficiency of quantum well luminescence with surface treatments are attributed to changes in surface recombination velocity and surface electric fields.

Abstract Based on first-principles calculations, the bias-induced evolution of hybrid interface states in π-conjugated tricene and insulating octane magnetic molecular junctions is investigated. Obvious bias-induced splitting and energy shift of the spin-resolved hybrid interface states are observed in the two junctions. The recombination of the shifted hybrid interface states from different interfaces makes the spin polarization around the Fermi energy strongly bias dependent. The transport calculations demonstrate that in the π-conjugated tricene junction, the bias-dependent hybrid interface states work efficiently for large current, current spin polarization, and distinct tunneling magnetoresistance. But in the insulating octane junction, the spin-dependent transport via the hybrid interface states is inhibited, which is only slightly disturbed by the bias. This work reveals the phenomenon of bias-induced reconstruction of hybrid interface states in molecular spinterface devices, and the underlying role of molecular conjugated orbitals in the transport ability of hybrid interface states.
