The radiative recombination rate of moderately dopedn-type andp-type GaAs/AlAs multiple quantum wells using a timecorrelated single photon counting system is presented. The experimental study has been obtained within a wide temperature range from liquid helium to room temperature and the work has focused on identifying photoluminescence decay rates based on freeexciton recombinations. It was found that the free exciton decay time was reduced in doped multiple GaAs/AlAs quantum wells, and that the reduction rate depends on both the concentration and doping type.

Gallium nitrides are primarily used for their excellent light emission properties. GaN LEDs are mostly grown on foreign substrates, essentially sapphire and SiC, but more recently, also on Si substrates. In this paper, we will demonstrate that the high structural quality of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells can be deposited on 3C-SiC/Si (111) substrate using MOCVD. This demonstrates that 3C-SiC/Si is a promising template for the epitaxial growth of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells for LEDs.

ABSTRACTWe studied the polarization-dependent photoluminescence (PL) of a-plane GaN /AlGaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) grown on r-plane sapphire substrate with the various well width from 1.5 to 7.33 nm. To clarify the reasons of light emission polarization properties, we applied the 6×6 k‧p model to simulate the E-k dispersion relation and the wave functions to obtain the polarization optical transitions. According to the experimental result, the PL emission peak position exhibits a red-shifted with increasing well width, due to the reduction of the quantum confinement effect. The polarization ratio of a-plane GaN/AlGaN MQWs increased from 0.236 to 0.274 with increasing the quantum well width. This phenomenon is believed to be that y-polarized light emission gradually dominates the PL spectrum and thus enhances the polarization ratio.
