摘要
We report on the photoluminescence spectroscopy of a large set of strained In1-xGaxAs/InP quantum well structures grown by low pressure metallo-organic vapour phase epitaxy. Distinct peaks from monolayer steps are observed in all samples. For the first time, data on indium-rich In1-xGaxAs/InP structures with complementary gallium contents as low as xGa = 0.07 and xGa = 0.11 are reported. The sample quality appears independent of the number of quantum wells stacked in the structure. With decreasing gallium content, a decrease in luminescence intensity is observed, which is related to an increase in the number of non-radiative recombination centres with respect to lattice-matched samples.
