摘要
The influence of high-energy electron irradiation on the time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) of quantum dot (QD) and quantum well (QW) InGaAs/GaAs structures are investigated. Both rise and decay kinetics is changed due to radiation-induced defects. The decay kinetics of as-grown QWs and QDs can be described by a single time constant. The irradiated QWs still exhibit the single exponential decay but with the less time constant, whereas the second faster component appears in the PL decay of QDs along with the component present prior to irradiation. Thus, we observed interaction of confined carriers with radiation-induced defects inside or near the QDs.
