Photoluminescence studies of compound semiconductor structures grown by molecular beam epitaxy

Low temperature photoluminescence measurements were carried out on Be doped GaAs layers and strained InGaAs/(Al)GaAs heterostructures grown by MBE. PL results demonstrate that the main emission associated with Be acceptors moves to a lower energy with increase in the hole concentration. This may be...
