GaAs1-xSbx/GaAs单量子阱的光学特性研究

用选择激发光荧光研究了分子束外延生长的GaAsSb/GaAs单量子阱的光学性质，第一次同时观察到空间直接(Ⅰ类)和间接(Ⅱ类)跃迁.它们表现出不同的特性：Ⅰ类跃迁具有局域化特性，其发光能量不随激发光能量而变；Ⅱ类发光的能量位置随激发功率的增大而蓝移，也随激发光能量的增加而蓝移，复合发光发生在位于异质结GaAs一侧的电子和GaAsSb中的空穴之间，实验结果可以很好地用电荷分离造成的能带弯曲模型来解释，这也是空间间接跃迁的典型特性.还用光荧光的激发强度关系和时间分辨光谱进一步论证了GaAsSb/GaAs能带排关键词：GaAsSb/GaAs选择激发Ⅱ类跃迁

Study of optical properties in GaAs1-xSbx/GaAssingle quant um wells

GaAsSb/GaAs single quantum wells (SQWs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy are studied by selectively-excited photoluminescence (SEPL) measurement. For the first time, we have simultaneously observed the PL from both type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ transitions in GaAsSb/GaAs heterostructure in the SEPL. The two transitions exhibit different PL behaviours under different excitation energy. As expected, the peak energy of type I emission remains constant in the whole excitation energy range we used, while type Ⅱ transition shows a significant blue shift with increasing excitation energy.The observed blue shift is well explained in terms of electron-hole charge separation model at the interface. Time-resolved(TR) PL exhibits more type Ⅱ characteristic of GaAsSb/GaAs QW. Moreover, the results of the excitation-power-dependent PL and TRPL provide more direct information on the type-Ⅱ nature of the band alignment in GaAsSb/GaAs quantum-well structures. By combining the experimental results with some simple calculations, we have obtained the strained and unstrained valence band offsets of Q_v＝1.145 and Q⁰_v＝0.76 in our samples, respectively.
