Abstract:

We present studies of the optical transitions in InGaN quantum dots (QDs). Spatially-resolved micro-photoluminescence (mu-PL) of single InGaN QDs reveals very sharp, clearly-defined peaks that are characteristic of strongly-confined carriers. Time-resolved measurements for single InGaN QDs reveal single exponential decays in contrast to non-exponential decays from the 2D wetting layer (WL) and from ensemble measurements.

Abstract:

A study was performed on the time-resolved dynamics in single InGaN quantum dots. The recombination was shown to be characterized by a single exponential decay. The results showed that the lifetimes of single dots in the temperature range 4 to 60 K decrease with increasing temperature.

Abstract:

InGaN quantum dots grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy were investigated. The InGaN epilayer was annealed at the growth temperature in molecular nitrogen. Microphotoluminescence studies of the quantum dots revealed sharp peaks with typical linewidths of ∼700 μeV. Time-resolved photoluminescence studies were also used for analysis.
