The influence of biexciton formation on the four-wave-mixing response of multiple quantum wells having a strong inhomogeneous broadening of the exciton transitions has been investigated. The experimental results are consistent with a model which distinguis ...
The incorporation of In in the growth of crescent-shaped In0.12Ga0.88As quantum wires embedded in (AlAs)(4)(GaAs)(8) superlattice barriers is studied in atomic detail using cross-sectional scanning tunneling microscopy. It is found that the In distribution ...
When a growth interruption is applied to the top interface of a nominally 3 monolayers (ML) thick InAs quantum well (QW), grown on an InP substrate, the InAs layer relaxes by formation of three-dimensional (3D) islands. The emission from the QW is split in ...
We present recent results of the study of surface properties and quantum efficiency (QE) of CsI photocathodes prepared on various substrates. Microanalysis methods provide laterally resolved surface morphology and chemical composition of the photoemissive ...
We demonstrate a novel all-optical spatial Light modulator capable of megahertz modulation rates. It is based on the quantum-confined Stark effect, but the modulating electric field is entirely photogenerated by strongly asymmetric photocarrier transfer in ...
We propose a simple quantum structure which exhibits resonant tunneling under one bias and simple tunneling under the opposite one, thus acting as a rectifier. The diode consists of a single laterally-indented barrier. Due to its particular conduction-band ...
A monolithically integrated displacement sensor has been fabricated in the GaAs/AlGaAs material system. The device is configured as a Michelson interferometer and consists of a DBR laser, a directional coupler, transparent waveguides and a photodetector. I ...
We have calculated the effect of alloy interdiffusion on the one-dimensional energy confinement of (Al,Ga)As/GaAs crescent shaped quantum wire structures. We show that the energy splitting between excited states may be greatly enhanced by the interdiffusio ...
The photoluminescence energy of strained (Ga, In)As quantum wells grown on (001) GaAs slightly misoriented (2 degrees-6 degrees) towards (111)A exhibits a blue shift when compared to quantum wells grown on perfectly oriented substrates. It is shown that th ...
In this review we first present the two classes of non-reactive and reactive surfactants effective during homoepitaxy and heteroepitaxy, respectively. We then describe and analyse the results obtained by ''true'' surfactant-mediated molecular-beam epitaxy ...
