We have systematically investigated the structural properties, carrier lifetimes, namely, photoluminescence (PL) lifetimes (τPL), and electron spin relaxation times (τs) in (110) GaAs/AlGaAs multiple quantum wells (MQWs) by using time-resolved PL measurements. The MQWs were grown by molecular beam epitaxy within a wide range of the growth temperature Tg (430–600 °C) and a high V/III flux ratio using As2. At 530 °C < Tg < 580 °C, we found that the quality of the heterointerfaces is significantly improved, resulting in τPL~40 ns at RT, one order of magnitude longer than those reported so far. Long τs (~6 ns) is also observed at RT.

ABSTRACTTime-resolved photoluminescence (PL) has been employed to study the optical transitions and their dynamical processes in GaN and InxGa1-xN epilayers, and GaN/GaN and GaN/ALxGa1-xN multiple quantum wells (MQW). We compare the results from both metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) grown samples. In addition, results are also compared with GaAs/ALxGa1-xAs MQW. It was found for all samples that the low temperature emission lines were dominated by radiative recombination transitions of either localized or free excitons, which demonstrates the high quality and purity of these III-nitride materials.
