摘要
利用有效质量方法和变分原理,考虑内建电场和量子点的三维约束效应,研究了Al含量对局域在GaN/AlxGa1-xN量子点中激子性质的影响.结果表明,随着Al含量的增加,GaN/AlxGa1-xN异质界面处的导带不连续性增强,势垒变高,载流子受到的约束增强,激子结合能增加,电子空穴的复合率先增大后减小,且存在最大值.对给定体积的量子点,随其高度的变化激子结合能存在最大值,相应的电子空穴被最有效约束,激子态最稳定.
Within the effective-mass approximation,the influence of Al content on exciton states is investigated by means of variational approach.The results show that with the Al content increasing,the barrier becomes higher and the carriers are more strongly confined in the quantum dot.The exciton binding energy increases with the increasing of Al content,and there is a maximum in the electron-hole recombination rate.Also,there is a maximum in the binding energy for a definite volume,where the carriers are the most efficiently confined in the quantum dots.
