【摘要】 测量了自组织多层In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.5Ga0.5As量子点的变温光致发光谱,同时观察到来自浸润层和量子点的发光,首次直接观察到了浸润层和量子点之间的载流子热转移.分析发光强度随温度的变化发现浸润层发光的热淬灭包括两个过程:低温时浸润层的激子从局域态热激发到扩展态,然后被量子点俘获;而温度较高时则通过势垒层的X能谷淬灭.利用速率方程模拟了激子在浸润层和量子点间的转移过程,计算结果与实验符合得很好更多还原

【Abstract】 The photoluminescence of self assembled multilayer In 0.55 Al 0.45 As/Al 0.5 Ga 0.5 As quantum dot (QD) was measured at various temperatures. Strong photoluminescence of wetting layer (WL) and quantum dots were observed at the same time. Furthermore, direct excitons thermal transfer process between the wetting layer and quantum dots was observed. In the study of temperature dependence of PL intensity it was found that the PL peak of wetting layer contains two quenching processes: at low temperature, excitons are thermally activated from localized states to extended two dimensional states and then trapped by QDs; at high temperature excitons quench through the X valley of barriers. Using rate equation excitons thermal transfer and quenching processes were analyzed quantitatively.更多还原
