AbstractWe performed numerical self-consistent solution of Schrödinger and Poisson equations for GaAs/InGaAs/AlGaAs pHEMT structures with quantum well. Based on the results we calculated optical transition matrix elements and photoluminescence spectra of such structures with the same design and different parameters (such as doping level and epitaxial layers width). In the photoluminescence spectra calculations three fitting parameters have been used. These parameters are GaAs/InGaAs valence band offset in strained quantum well, hole quasi Fermi level and inhomogeneous broadening. The PL peaks amplitudes and positions dependencies on the structure parameters were established. These dependencies can be used as the basis for pHEMT structure non-destructive diagnostics.

The subject of space charge in ionization detectors is reviewed, showing how the observations and the formalism used to describe the effects have evolved, starting with applications to calorimeters and reaching recent, large time-projection chambers. General scaling laws, and different ways to present and model the effects are presented. The relations between space-charge effects and the boundary conditions imposed on the side faces of the detector are discussed, together with a design solution that mitigates some of the effects. The implications of the relative size of drift length and transverse detector size are illustrated. Calibration methods are briefly discussed.
