Abstract
AbstractWe report the optical characteristics of 100 A˚ thick GaAs/Ga0.521n0.48P single quantum wells grown by Metal Organic Vapor Phase Epitaxy. We have confirmed from the 77 K photoluminescence (PL) that an optimum growth sequence is necessary to achieve the emission from the well (1.52 eV), otherwise only the deep emission band (1.46 eV) is observed. From the time-resolved photoluminescence and temperature dependent PL measurements, we assign that this 1.46 eV deep emission is a recombination of electron-hole pair in a vacancy-related defect which is spatially distributed at the imperfect GaAs/Ga 0.521n0.48P interface.
