Magnetophotoluminescence from spatially separated excitons in type-II semiconductor heterostructures, GaP/AlP neighboring confinement structures (NCSs) have been investigated. The sample studied consists of adjacent GaP and AlP quantum wells sandwiched between AlGaP barriers. The excitation power dependence and the well thickness dependence of the exciton PL are studied in magnetic fields applied perpendicular to the heterointerfaces. Compared to the thinner NCS, the magneto-PL of the wider NCS is strongly modified by the excitation power; the magnetic field dependence of the PL peak energy clearly changes from the anomalous red-shifts into the diamagnetic shifts with increasing excitation laser power.

Self-consistent calculations of the electronic structure of center n-δ-doped GaAs/Al x Ga 1-x As quantum wells under in-plane magnetic fields are presented. The field B is varied up to 20 Tesla for different quantum well widths L w and sheet donor concentrations N D . The magnetic field produces noticeable changes in the energy dispersions along an in-plane direction perpendicular to B. The effects of B are more pronounced for higher electronic subbands. It is found that the diamagnetic shifts increase with increasing L w and/or N D . Contrarily to what has been observed in modulation-doped quantum wells, in these δ-doped systems the electron energy dispersions keep the single conduction band minimum at the center of the Brillouin zone even for intense magnetic fields.

ABSTRACTTo date, light emission by AlGaN-based heterostructures and LED's operating in the ultraviolet region is far less efficient than emission from longer wavelength structures based on GaInN. We have realized GaN/AlGaN quantum well structures emitting in the 360–320 nm range with peak room-temperature internal efficiencies reaching more than 20 %. From detailed studies of the temperature and excitation power dependence of the efficiency we find that excitons play a crucial role enhancing radiative recombination in such structures. Except for the peak internal efficiency, which reaches 73 % in GaInN/GaN, the overall behavior in GaN/AlGaN and GaInN/GaN is very similar, suggesting that the main difference is the nonradiative recombination mechanism.
