Single crystals of layered semiconductors such as WS2 and MoS2 have already proven their efficiency as active elements in photovoltaic cells. Due to their high optical absorption coefficient in the visible range, these materials could be used in the form o ...
Microcavity light-emitting diodes (MCLEDs) with top-emitting geometry have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs and Si substrates. External quantum efficiencies of up to 10% were obtained for 420 x 420 mu m(2) homoepitaxial devices. The efficiency ...
Our investigations focus on low-temperature luminescence experiments on a set of type-II GaAs/AlAs multiple-quantum-well (MQW) samples grown by low-pressure metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy. The layered structures consists of 50 periods of either 2 monola ...
We present a comparison between the predictions of two theoretical models and experimental results on ultrathin GaAs layers with a thickness in the range from 1 to 8 ML embedded in bulk (AlxGa1-x)As, 0.30 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.34. ...
Type-II GaAs/AlAs quantum-well samples grown by low-pressure metal-organic vapour-phase epitaxy consisting of 50 periods of either 2 monolayers (ML), 4 ML, 5 ML, 6 ML, or 7 ML GaAs embedded in 28 ML AlAs were under investigation. Even at room temperature d ...
Identical GaAs/Al0.2Ga0.8As multiple-quantum-well (MQW) structures uniformly doped with Si at various concentrations ranging from 1x10(17) to 1X10(19) cm(-3) are grown by molecular-beam epitaxy to study the effects of the background Si-doping level on the ...
The nature and the role of 1 to 5 nm thick TiO2 seed layers for the growth of textured PbTiO3 and Pb(Zr, Ti)O-3 thin films on textured Pt(111) thin film substrates have been studied. Under otherwise identical in situ sputter deposition process conditions, ...
We report on the investigation of In surface segregation in GaInP/GaAs and GaInAs/GaAs heterostructures grown by chemical beam epitaxy (CBE). Owing to the peculiarities of CBE growth, it is shown that In segregation can be quantitatively evaluated in real- ...
The increase of the complexity in semiconductor structures raises more and more the need for local evaluation techniques. For example, laser structures with graded-index waveguides are now widespread, but the characterisation of the shape of the gradient i ...
