In this paper we present a detailed analysis of the structural, electronic, and optical properties of an $m$-plane (In,Ga)N/GaN quantum well structure grown by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy. The sample has been structurally characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning transmission electron microscopy, and 3D atom probe tomography. The optical properties of the sample have been studied by photoluminescence (PL), time-resolved PL spectroscopy, and polarized PL excitation spectroscopy. The PL spectrum consisted of a very broad PL line with a high degree of optical linear polarization. To understand the optical properties we have performed atomistic tight-binding calculations, and based on our initial atom probe tomography data, the model includes the effects of strain and built-in field variations arising from random alloy fluctuations. Furthermore, we included Coulomb effects in the calculations. Our microscopic theoretical description reveals strong hole wave function localization effects due to random alloy fluctuations, resulting in strong variations in ground state energies and consequently the corresponding transition energies. This is consistent with the experimentally observed broad PL peak. Furthermore, when including Coulomb contributions in the calculations we find strong exciton localization effects which explain the form of the PL decay transients. Additionally, the theoretical results confirm the experimentally observed high degree of optical linear polarization. Overall, the theoretical data are in very good agreement with the experimental findings, highlighting the strong impact of the microscopic alloy structure on the optoelectronic properties of these systems.
We present an atomistic description of the electronic and optical properties of $text{In}_{0.25}text{Ga}_{0.75}$N/GaN quantum wells. Our analysis accounts for fluctuations of well width, local alloy composition, strain and built-in field fluctuations
Localization lengths of the electrons and holes in InGaN/GaN quantum wells have been calculated using numerical solutions of the effective mass Schrodinger equation. We have treated the distribution of indium atoms as random and found that the result
We present here an atomistic theory of the electronic and optical properties of hexagonal InAsP quantum dots in InP nanowires in the wurtzite phase. These self-assembled quantum dots are unique in that their heights, shapes, and diameters are well kn
In this work we present a detailed analysis of the interplay of Coulomb effects and different mechanisms that can lead to carrier localization effects in c-plane InGaN/GaN quantum wells. As mechanisms for carrier localization we consider here effects
The authors theoretically investigate quantum confinement and transition energies in quantum wells (QWs) asymmetrically positioned in wrinkled nanomembranes. Calculations reveal that the wrinkle profile induces both blue- and redshifts depending on t
