The effect of the surface state on the quantum efficiency of underlying GaAs/AlGaAs multi-quantum well(MQW) structures consisting of three GaAs quantum wells with different thickness, is studied by low temperature photoluminescence(PL). The structure was grown by molecular beam epitaxy(MBE) on (100) GaAs substrate. The thickness of three GaAs quantum wells was 3, 6 and 9 nm, respectively. The MQWs were placed apart from 50 nm AlGaAs edge-barriers including two inner-barriers with 15 nm in thickness. The samples used in this study were prepared with different growth temperatures. Particularly, the hydrogen passivation effect to the 9 nm quantum well located at near surface appeared much stronger than any others. Transition energy and optical gain related to the hydrogen passivation effects on the multi-quantum well structure was calculated by transfer matrix method.

$Al_{0.24}Ga_{0.76}As/GaAs$ 다중 양자우물 구조의 고아 흡수 특성을 표면 광전압 방법을 사용하여 연구하였다. SPV 측정결과 1.42eV 부근에서 두 개의 신호가 나탔으며, 이는 화학적 에칭으로 GaAs 기판의 신호와 GaAs 완충층과 관련된 신호임을 확인 할 수 있었다. $Al_{0.24}Ga_{0.76}As$와 관련된 전이 에너지를 관찰하고, Kuech 등이 제안한 조성식을 이용하여 Al 조성(x=24%)을 결정하였다. 그리고 다중 양자우물에서 나타나는 전이 에너지 값들은 envelope-weve function approximation(EFA)로 계산한 이론치와 잘 일치하였다. 입사광의 세기에 따라 광 전압이 선형적으로 변한다는 것을 알 수 있었고, 온도가 감소함에 따른 전이 에너지의 변화를 관찰하였다.

나노 크기 양자우물구조로 구성된 광통신용 방향성결합기를 모드전송선천 이론을 이용하여 설계하였다. 그 타당성과 유용성을 보이기 위하여 나노 결합기의 그 전파특성과 결합특성을 서로 다른 유효질량으로 구성된 이중 양자우물구조에서 분석하였다. 그 수치해석 결과 전체 전자에너지가 83.9 meV일 때, 결합길이 295.3 nm에서 최대 결합효율을 나타내었다. 더욱이, 이중 양자우물구조 사이의 장벽(barrier) 두께가 증가함에 따라 협대역(narrowband) 필터로 동작하였다.

The parallel multi-quantum well structures of blue and amber lights were designed and grown in metal-organic chemical vapor deposition by utilizing integration process on epitaxial layers. Samples were deposited for 5 periods-InGaN multi-quantum well layers for blue light emission and partially etched in order to regrow the 3 periods-InGaN multi-quantum wells for amber light. The blue and amber photoluminescence spectra were observed at the peak wavelengths of 475 and 580 nm, respectively. The chromatic coordinates of the white emitting diode were 0.31 and 0.34.

In the area of optoelectronic devices based on GaN and related ternary compounds, the two-dimensional system like as quantum wells (QWs) has been investigated as an effective structure for improving the light-emitting efficiency. Generally, the quantum well active regions in III-nitride light-emitting diodes grown on conventional c-plane sapphire substrates have critical problems given by the quantum confined Stark effect (QCSE) due to the effects of strong piezoelectric and spontaneous polarizations. However, the QWs grown on nonpolar templates are free from the QCSE since the polar-axis lies within the growth plane of the template. Also the unique characteristic of linear polarized light emission from nonpolar QW structures is attracting attentions because it is proper to the application of back-light units of liquid crystal display. In this study, we characterized optical properties of the a-plane InGaN/GaN QW structures by temperature-dependent photoluminescence (TDPL) measurements. From the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum measured at 300 K, green emission centered at 520 nm was observed for the QW region. Since indium incorporation on nonpolar QWs is lower than that on c-plane, this high indium-doping on a-plane InGaN QWs is not common. Therefore, the effect of high indium composition on optical properties in a-plane InGaN QWs will be extensively studied.

Time-resolved photoluminescence from InGaN/GaN multi-quantum well structures was investigated for two different shapes of square- and trapezoidal wells grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. To compare to the conventional square well structure with a radiative recombination lifetime of 0.170 nsec, the large value of lifetime of 0.540 nsec from trapezoidal well were found at room temperature. This value is similar to the value for GaN host material indicating no confinement effect of quantum well. Furthermore, the high resolution transmission electron microscopy image provides the In clustering effect in the trapezoidal well structure.

The core-shell InGaN/GaN Multi Quantum Well-Nanowires (MQW-NWs) that were selectively grown on oxide templates with perfectly circular hole patterns were highly crystalline and were shaped as high-aspect-ratio pyramids with semi-polar facets, indicating hexagonal symmetry. The formation of the InGaN active layer was characterized at its various locations for two types of the substrates, one containing defect-free MQW-NWs with GQDs and the other containing MQW-NWs with defects by using HRTEM. The TEM of the defect-free NW showed a typical diode behavior, much larger than that of the NW with defects, resulting in stronger EL from the former device, which holds promise for the realization of high-performance nonpolar core-shell InGaN/GaN MQW-NW substrates. These results suggest that well-defined nonpolar InGaN/GaN MQW-NWs can be utilized for the realization of high-performance LEDs.
