We present a comprehensive study of the optical characteristics of (Al, In)GaN epilayers measured by photoluminescence (PL), integrated PL intensity, and time-resolved PL spectroscopy. For not only InGaN, but also AlGaN epilayers with large Al content, we observed an anomalous PL temperature dependence: (i) an “S-shaped” PL peak energy shift (decrease-increase-decrease) and (ii) an “inverted S-shaped” full width at half maximum (FWHM) change (increase-decrease-increase) with increasing temperature. Based on time-resolved PL, the S shape (inverted S shape) of the PL peak position (FWHM) as a function of temperature, and the much smaller PL intensity decrease in the temperature range showing the anomalous emission behavior, we conclude that strong localization of carriers occurs in InGaN and even in AlGaN with rather high Al content. We observed that the following increase with increasing Al content in AlGaN epilayers: (i) a Stokes shift between the PL peak energy and the absorption edge, (ii) a redshift of the emission with decay time, (iii) the deviations of the PL peak energy, FWHM, and PL intensity from their typical temperature dependence, and (iv) the corresponding temperature range of the anomalous emission behavior. This indicates that the band-gap fluctuation responsible for these characteristics is due to energy tail states caused by non-random inhomogeneous alloy potential variations enhanced with increasing Al content.

This work deals with investigations of fluorescence phenomena during interaction of ultraviolet laser radiation with four substances (2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 3-hydroxypicolinic acid, dithranol and ferulic acid) commonly used as matrices in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI). Wavelength-resolved fluorescence measurements allowed classification of UV-MALDI matrices on the basis of their Stokes shift. Matrices showing a high Stokes shift dissipated high amounts of laser energy by means of intra- and intermolecular energy transfer processes, hence contributing less to the ionization of analyte compounds. Conversely, matrix substances with a low Stokes shift retained more of the original photonic energy which may then be available for ionization within the matrix or after desorption of molecular species. Therefore matrix compounds can be designated as “hard” (high ionization energy) in the case of small Stokes shifts or “soft” (low ionization energy) in the case of high Stokes shifts. Time-resolved measurements showed fluorescence lifetimes below 5 ns for all four substances.

Luminescence properties of blue emission InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well (MQW) have been studied by temperature dependent photoluminescence (PL), photoluminescence excitation (PLE) and time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) spectroscopic techniques. Two typical samples are studied, both consisting of five periods of InGaN wells with different indium compositions of 21% and 24%, respectively. According to the PL and PLE measurement results, large values of activation energy and Stokes’ shift are obtained. This indicates that higher Indium composition results in an increase of composition fluctuation in the InGaN MQW region, showing the stronger carrier localization effect. The lifetime at the low-energy side of the InGaN peaks is longer for higher indium composition, as expected from the larger Stokes shift.
