A method for the direct correlation at the nanoscale of structural and optical properties of single GaAs nanowires is reported. Nanowires consisting of 100% wurtzite and nanowires presenting zinc-blende/wurtzite polytypism are investigated by photoluminesc ...
Semiconductor quantum dots are usually compared to artificial atoms, because their electronic structure consists of discrete energy levels as for natural atoms. These artificial systems are integrated in solid materials and can be localized with a spatial ...
Semiconductor nanowires offer a wide range of opportunities for newgenerations of nanoscale electronic and optic devices. For these applications to become reality, deeper understanding of the fundamental properties of the nanowires is required. In this the ...
A quantum dot is a semiconductor nanostructure that confines the motion of conduction band electrons and valence band holes in all three spatial directions, thus creating fully discrete energy levels. The confinement in the InAs/GaAs material system is gen ...
A large number of characterization tools for semiconductor based heterostructures are available nowadays. Most of these techniques deliver high temporal resolution (down to hundreds of femtoseconds) or good spatial resolution (down to sub nanometer resolut ...
The present doctoral thesis aims to contribute to the field of organic semiconductor physics and technology, both of which have become fast growing disciplines. Two technological applications are emerging from these research efforts: Organic light-emitting ...
Photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectroscopy was carried out to investigate the excitation/emission cycle of MBE grown InGaN quantum structures. Quantum well and Stranski-Krastanov type quantum box samples were chosen that emit from blue to red. The ban ...
Silicon has become the most important material for the semiconductor industry, due to several advantages like good heat conductance or the high quality of its oxide. Nevertheless, for opto-electronic devices, the limitation of its indirect band-gap has ant ...
The photoluminescence (PL) and PL-excitation (PLE) spectra of InyCa1-yAs/AlxGa1-xAs compressively strained V-groove quantum wires (QWR's) are compared to that of lattice-matched GaAs/AlyGa1-xAs QWR's with the same wire geometry. The PL is preferentially po ...
This thesis work contains an experimental study of many-body and cooperative effects in quantum wells. Many-body effects prove important for an understanding of the physical and specifically optical properties of semiconductors. The Coulomb interaction bet ...
