The influence of quantum well and barrier thicknesses on photoluminescence spectra of InGaAs/AlInAs superlattices grown by LP-MOVPE

In the presented work, the influence of the quantum well and barrier thicknesses on optical characteristics of InGaAs/AlInAs superlattices was reported. Six different structures of In0.53Ga0.47As/Al0.48In0.52As superlattices lattice-matched to InP were grown by low pressure metal organic vapour phase epitaxy (LP-MOVPE). Optical properties of the obtained structures were examined by means of photoluminescence spectroscopy. This technique allows quick, simple and non-destructive measurements of radiative optical transitions in different semiconductor heterostructures.The analysis of recorded photoluminescence spectra revealed the influence of the quantum well and barrier thicknesses on the emission line energy.
