Carrier transport and capture paths via barriers of different dimensionality in AlGaAs/GaAs quantum wire (QWR)/quantum dot (QD) heterostructures, grown in inverted pyramids, are studied by photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Evidence for thermally activat ...
We directly investigate, by means of near-field spectroscopy, the spatial distribution of the optical cavity modes of 2D photonic crystal microcavities. Numerical simulations confirm that the photoluminescence maps of quantum dots embedded in the photonic ...
We present a model for the disorder of the heterointerfaces in GaAs quantum wells including long-range components like monolayer island formation induced by the surface diffusion during the epitaxial growth process. Taking into account both interfaces, a d ...
The dynamics of charging and recombination of photoexcited, site-controlled semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are investigated using microphotoluminescence (PL) and photon-correlation spectroscopy combined with rate equation modeling. Several species of neu ...
In this thesis work, we report scanning near-field optical photoluminescence spectroscopy measurements with at best 200 nm spatial resolution performed on disordered semiconductor V-groove AlGaAs/GaAs quantum wires. In order to interpret the results of the ...
In this thesis, I describe the design and first applications of a new molecular-beam/surface-science ultra-high vacuum apparatus. The new machine combines rovibrational state-selective infrared pumping of gas-phase reactants with reflection absorption infr ...
The aim of this thesis is to supply a theoretical study of the interaction mechanisms between quantum dots beyond the simple picture of macroatoms. Coulomb interaction between excitons, exciton-phonon interaction as well as radiative interaction are, in pa ...
This thesis presents an experimental study of the energy and time-resolved optical response of chemically prepared CdSe nanoparticles with different sizes, shapes (dots, rods, and tetrapods), and lattice structures (wurtzite and zinc blende). The first par ...
Spatially resolved photoluminescence spectra of thin GaAs quantum wells are measured by near-field spectroscopy, and two-energy autocorrelation functions of the spectra are derived. We demonstrate distinctly different autocorrelation functions for a 3-nm-t ...
The dynamics of charging and recombination of photoexcited, site-controlled semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are investigated using microphotoluminescence (PL) and photon-correlation spectroscopy combined with rate equation modeling. Several species of neu ...
