AlGaN nanostructures with extremely high quantum yield at 300 K

Аннотация

Theoretical optimization of a quantum well heterostructure based on AlGaN solid solutions is implemented in order to attain the maximum charge carrier activation energy and the maximum exciton binding energy at a radiation wavelength of ~300 nm. An optimized structure sample with the radiative recombination dominating over the temperature range of 5 to 300 K and the room temperature internal quantum yield as high as 80% of the value measured at 5 K has been manufactured via plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy.
