Stokes shift in semi-polar ( 112¯2) InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells
2016
The mechanism for the large Stokes Shifts of InGaN/GaN structures is under debate. Here, we report a systematic study on the Stokes shift of semi-polar ( 112¯2) InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) with a wide spectral range from green (490 nm) to yellow (590 nm) by means of both photoluminescence excitation and time resolved PL measurements in comparison with their c-plane counterparts. The semi-polar samples exhibit a lower Stokes shift than their c-plane counterparts, although they show stronger localization effect than their c-plane counterparts. In the long wavelength region, the Stokes shift of the semi-polar MQWs shows a linear relationship with emission energy, but with a smaller gradient compared with their c-plane counterparts. The time-resolved PL measurements confirm a significant reduction in piezoelectric field of the semi-polar samples compared with the c-plane counterparts. It is suggested that the piezoelectric field induced polarization is the major mechanism for causing the large Sto...
