Abstract:
Internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of AlGaN‐based multiple quantum wells (MQWs) on face‐to‐face‐annealed sputter‐deposited AlN templates is examined by photoluminescence spectroscopy. The excitation power density dependence of IQE is evaluated as a function of temperature under the selective excitation of the quantum wells. The temperature dependences of the maximum IQE and the corresponding excitation power density (EPD) are analyzed based on the rate equation models for carriers and excitons. The decrease of the maximum IQE and increase of the corresponding EPD are mainly due to the increase in the nonradiative recombination rate via nonradiative recombination centers. Furthermore, the nonradiative recombination rate for the MQW with an emission wavelength around 220 nm is activated at a lower temperature than the other samples, which is expected to lead to the lower IQE of the MQW with an emission wavelength around 220 nm.Keywords:

We present a photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation study of CdTe quantum dots, prepared via a novel organometallic approach. The global photoluminescence (excited at the energy above the absorption edge) showed a red shift of 75 meV with respect to the first absorption peak. This band edge emission was found to be strongly dependent on the excitation photon. Resonant emission spectra showed a pronounced spectral shift and line narrowing with decreasing excitation energy. The resonant Stokes shifts were extracted from photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation data. The minimum magnitude of the resonant Stokes shift of 14 meV was obtained at room temperature.

It is shown that temperature transformation of photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation spectra are caused by presence of two different excitation channels. Photoluminescence intensity decrease under cooling is explained by impediment of energy transfer from adsorbent to luminescence centers while its increase under excitation via other channel is observed under cooling.

Self-limiting monolayer epitaxy has been used to prepare ZnSe/CdSe quantum well structures containing 1–5 monolayers (≊3–15 Å) thick CdSe quantum wells. Photoluminescence spectra of these structures show bright excitonic lines with a blue shift of maximum 870 meV for the 1 monolayer wide quantum wells. Calculations for the energetic positions of the photoluminescence peaks are in good agreement with the experimental data. The full width at half maximum of the photoluminescence lines increases from about 25 meV for the 1 ML quantum wells to about 75 meV for the 3 ML quantum wells.

Using photoluminescence, photoluminescence excitation, and secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) investigations we show in this paper that two luminescence objects with different PL excitation spectra exist in PS. Two stages of photoluminescence aging were observed which are connected with desorption and oxidation processes.

Abstract The photoluminescence excitation spectra are presented of weakly and highly compensated CuGaSe 2 , grown under Cu‐excess and under Cu‐deficiency, respectively. An overlap is observed between the photoluminescence and the excitation spectrum in the Cu‐poor material, indicating fluctuating potentials due to high compensation, whereas no overlap is observed in material grown under Cu‐excess, indicating flat bands. The photoluminescence excitation spectra can be used as measure for the absorption spectrum in the case of flat bands, but not in the case fluctuating potentials, where different emission energies probe different depths of the fluctuations. Methods for the determination of the fluctuation amplitude from the photoluminescence and the excitation spectra are discussed. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

We have measured and analyzed the photoluminescence spectra from InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells. Emission peaks due to recombination of the photogenerated carriers occupying localized states and extended states within quantum wells have been identified through temperature-dependent photoluminescence. Fast and slow decays have been attributed to recombination of carriers in extended states and localized states, respectively, based on time-resolved pump-probe differential photoluminescence.
