摘要
We demonstrate that the density of carriers con be efficiently modulated by low cw pump power I-EXC when a novel GaAs/GaAlAs double quantum well structure is used to separate photoexcited electron-hole pairs into different quantum wells. A separated carrier density N-SC=1.4*10(11) carriers cm(-2) was found at a pump power I-EXC=250mWcm(-2). This was studied via the photoluminescence peak position which is very sensitive to the carrier density. Detailed measurements revealed the efficiency of carrier separation epsilon(CS)approximate to 20c/c and the separated carrier lifetime tau(SC)=2.3 mu s.
