【Abstract】 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 Q 0 v=0 76 in our samples, respectively.更多还原
