The biaxial strain effect for quantum wires is included in the calculation. The compressive strain in the Zn 1-x Cd x Se wire region increases the energy separation between the uppermost subbands. The optical gain with xy -polarized light is enhanced, while optical gain with z -polarized light is strongly decreased. The xy -polarized optical gain spectrum has a peak at around 2.541 eV, with the transparency carrier density of 0.75×10 18 cm -3 . The calculated results also show that the strain tends to increase the quantum confinement and enhance the anisotropy of the optical transitions.展开更多

The luminescence decay of GaInP alloy shows the temperature and excitation intensity dependent characters. At 77 K and under high excitation intensity, the luminescence decay shows single exponential time dependence, while under low excitation intensity or at 300 K, the luminescence decay shows double exponential time dependence. The analysis indicates that this nominally disordered GaInP alloy actually exhibits a very weak degree of order. The blue shift of PL peak is observed in the TRPL spectra at 77 K, which is derived from the transfer of the carriers from the ordered domain to the disordered region of the alloy. At 300 K, due to the thermal quenching, the transfer is too weak to be observed. However, The recombination of the carriers between the ordered domain and the disordered region is still devoted to luminesce.展开更多
