Abstract
AbstractThe effects of piezoelectric fields on the static and dynamic optical properties of GaInN/GaN and GaN/AIGaN double heterostructures and single quantum wells are studied by time-resolved photoluminescence. We find a strong increase of the luminescence decay time of the dominating transition with well thickness by several orders of magnitude. For well thicknesses larger than about 5 nm, two emission lines with strongly differing decay times are observed, which are attributed to spatially direct and indirect transitions. Our experimental findings are consistently explained by a quantitative model based on the piezoelectric fields in strained wurtzite quantum wells.
