InxGa1-xAs1-yNy/Al0.33Ga0.67As multiquantum wells grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy are studied by resonant inelastic light scattering. Sharp vibration modes have been observed at 323, 402, 454 and 501 cm-1. Their intensities resonate at the barrier bandgap reduced by the presence of N. Their resonance energies reveal the influence of the N concentration on the barrier gap at the multiquantum well interfaces. These peaks are interpreted in terms of local vibrations involving the pairing of N atoms, which seems to occur mostly at the quantum well interfaces due to preferential bonding of N to Al.

ABSTRACTShort period Si/Ge superlattices have been grown on Ge (001) and Si (001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. The optical properties of the superlattices have been studied with photoreflectance. (PR) and resonant Raman scattering (RRS). With PR we are able to observe new, structural induced transitions for all superlattices which are related to E0-and E1-like gaps. The analysis of PR spectra is complicated by an optical etalon effect if the samples are sufficently thick. The E1-like transitions in the range between 1.9eV and 2.7eV are also studied with RRS. Due to the confinement of the optical phonons in the Ge and Si layers RRS is able to probe the bandstructure in each layer seperately. Localized electronic states in the Ge layers can be observed with RRS for a Si4Ge18 superlattice and are compared with PR measurements.
