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 ...
GaN/AlxGa1-xN quantum wells (QWs) are grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on c-plane sapphire substrates. Both the Al composition and the well thickness are determined in situ from reflection high-energy electron diffraction intensity oscillations. It is ...
We report the optical properties of high quality V-groove GaAs/Al0.3Ga0.7.As quantum wires (QWRs) with different thicknesses of the GaAs layer. The systematic investigation of photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra as a funct ...
MBE-grown samples containing several GaN-AlxGa1-xN quantum wells of varying widths are studied by picosecond time-resolved photoluminescence. Extremely strong built-in electric fields are present in such systems, due to piezoelectric and pyroelectric effec ...
Using femtosecond resonant luminescence, we have measured the intersubband scattering fare of electrons in wide GaAs quantum wells at very low excitation densities. Even when the spacing between the first two electron subbands is smaller than the LO phonon ...
The purpose of my thesis is to provide a theoretical analysis of the dynamics of optically excited carriers in semiconductor confined systems. In particular, I will focus the investigations on the effects due to the presence of a strong electron-hole Coulo ...
We report a low-temperature photoluminescence study of a series of AlxGal-xN/GaN quantum wells of various widths L and with x ranging from 0.11 to 0.25, grown by molecular beam epitaxy on silicon (111) substrates. Such quantum wells are subject to an impor ...
We report on time-resolved photoluminescence studies of charged and neutral excitons in a modulation doped GaAs quantum well under resonant excitation and high magnetic field. The radiative lifetime of the charged exciton is rather short, 60 ps at zero hel ...
We study the dynamics of the charged and neutral excitons in a modulation-doped GaAs quantum well by time-resolved photoluminescence under a resonant excitation. The radiative lifetime of the charged exciton is found to be surprisingly short, 60 ps. This t ...
The formation mechanisms, structure and optoelectronic properties of Ga(In)As/(Al)GaAs quantum dot (QD) heterostructures grown by organometallic chemical vapor deposition on patterned (111)B GaAs substrates are reviewed. With this approach, it is possible ...
