Three different existing steady-state models with quantum correction for simulating the resonant tunnelling diode are summarized. Numerical methods and a theoretical argument for one of the models are briefly described. Results of simulation axe focused on ...
We have investigated the ultrafast coherent dynamics of exciton-polaritons and excitons in semiconductor quantum nanostructures, including InGaAs/AlGaAs multi quantum well Bragg structures and AlGaAs/GaAs crescent shaped quantum wire samples, by using a ph ...
The dissociation of methane on a nickel catalyst is a key step in steam reforming of natural gas for hydrogen production. Despite substantial effort in both experiment and theory, there is still no atomic-scale description of this important gas-surface rea ...
We present a combined theoretical and experimental analysis to describe the interplay between polarization field, charge screening, and radiative and nonradiative recombinations in AlGaN/ GaN-based nanostructures. We perform the study of photoluminescence ...
Recombination dynamics in a variety of InGaN/GaN quantum systems has been studied by time resolved photoluminescence (PL). We have discovered that the time-decay of PL exhibits a scaling law: the nonexponential shape of this decay is preserved for quantum ...
We present an experimental and theoretical study of the size dependence of the coupling between electron-hole pairs and longitudinal-optical phonons in Ga1-xInxN/GaN-based quantum wells and quantum boxes. We found that the Huang-Rhys factor S, which determ ...
Properties of carrier-induced ferromagnetism in modulation-doped quantum wells of p-type (Cd,Mn)Te are assessed by photoluminescence (PL) and PL excitation spectroscopy. Well-chosen illumination makes it possible to deplete the quantum well and thus to con ...
We have demonstrated ultrafast coherent control of excitons and exciton-polaritons in semiconductor quantum nanostructures. An InGaAs/AlGaAs multi-quantum-well Bragg structure and an AlGaAs/GaAs crescent-shaped quantum wire structure were used as samples f ...
Near-field photoluminescence spectra of a single quantum well dominated by emission from localized excitons are subjected to a statistical analysis of the two-energy autocorrelation function, This analysis is compared to a theoretical model of the exciton ...
Multicolor, multi-quantum well light emitting diodes have been fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy by inserting quantum wells of various widths in the active region. The In content of the wells is 15%-20% and the color is governed by carrier confinement a ...
