摘要:

研究了CdTe/ZnTe非对称双量子阱(QW)结构的光致发光(PL)和光致发光激发(PLE)谱。样品的不同在于CdTe量子阱之间的ZnTe间隔物的厚度为45、65和75 ML。已经发现,在势垒以上的激发,从浅量子阱在足够弱的激发强度的PL是由热激子的复合。结果表明,在此条件下,当用不同波长的激光激发PL时,浅量子阱和深量子阱的PL强度之比随热激子初始动能的增加呈指数衰减。结果表明,在ZnTe带隙以上的20个以上LO声子的激子动能范围内,热激子的能量弛豫和LO声子的发射决定了浅量子阱的PLE谱的形状.我们已经表明,所获得的结果很好地描述了量子阱之间的电荷和能量转移模型。

英文摘要:

The photoluminescence (PL) and PL excitation (PLE) spectra of CdTe/ZnTe asymmetric double quantum well (QW) structures are studied on a series of samples containing two CdTe layers with nominal thicknesses of 2 and 4 monolayers (ML) in the ZnTe matrix. The samples differ in the thickness of the ZnTe spacer between CdTe QWs which is 45, 65 and 75 ML. It has been found that at above-barrier excitation the PL from a shallow QW at sufficiently weak excitation intensities is determined by recombination of hot excitons. It is shown that under these conditions, when PL is excited by lasers with different wavelengths, the ratio of the PL intensities from shallow and deep QWs decreases exponentially with an increase of the initial kinetic energy of hot excitons. It is found that energy relaxation of hot excitons with LO phonon emission determine the shape of the PLE spectrum of shallow QW in the range of exciton kinetic energies up to more than 20 LO phonons above ZnTe bandgap. We have shown that the results obtained are well described by the model of charge and energy transfer between QWs.
