- Low temperature photoluminescence (PL) from InP1-xBix thin films with Bi concentrations in the 0-2.49% range reveals anomalous spectral features with strong and very broad (linewidth of 700 nm) PL signals compared to other bismide alloys. Multiple transitions are observed and their energy levels are found much smaller than the band-gap measured from absorption measurements. These transitions are related to deep levels confirmed by deep level transient spectroscopy, which effectively trap free holes and enhance radiative recombination. The broad luminescence feature is beneficial for making super-luminescence diodes, which can theoretically enhance spatial resolution beyond 1 ?m in optical coherent tomography (OCT).

Photoluminescence of InGaAs/GaAsBi/InGaAs type-II quantum wells grown by gas source molecular beam epitaxy

- InxGa1-xAs/GaAs1-yBiy/InxGa1-xAs (0.20 ≤x ≤0.22, 0.035 ≤y ≤0.045) quantum wells (QWs) were grown on GaAs substrates by gas source molecular beam epitaxy for realizing the type-II band edge line-up. Both type-I and type-II transitions were observed in the Bi containing W QWs and the photoluminescence intensity was enhanced in the sample with a high Bi content, which is mainly due to the improvement of carrier confinement. The 8 band k • p model was used to analyze the electronic properties in the QWs and the calculated transition energies fit well with the experiment results. Our study shows that the proposed type-II QW is a promising candidate for realizing GaAs-based near infrared light emitting devices near 1.3 μm

Bi-Induced Electron Concentration Enhancement Being Responsible for Photoluminescence Blueshift and Broadening in InAs Films
- 2019

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Photoluminescence (PL) study is conducted on InAs films molecular beam epitaxially grown on GaAs substrates with different Bi flux levels. A PL peak blueshift accompanied by linewidth broadening is found with the increase of Bi/As flux ratio, in contrast to the common Bi isoelectronic incorporation or surfactant effect. It is, with detailed lineshape analysis and the evidence of PL peak splitting in a magnetic filed, attributed to the electron concentration enhancement induced by Bi flux. The electron concentration in InAs film is evaluated, which is about 5-fold enhanced as Bi/As flux ratio rises up from 0 to 1x10(-3). The temperature dependence of the PL spectrum indicates that the carrier redistribution augments while the carrier-phonon Frohlich scattering weakens in InAs films with high Bi/As flux ratios. These findings reveal a novel Bi effect of electron concentration enhancement, and contribute to the basic knowledge of Bi in III-V semiconductors.

- We present electrically injected GaAs/GaAsBi single quantum well laser diodes (LDs) emitting at a record long wavelength of 1141 nm at room temperature grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The LDs have excellent device performances with internal quantum efficiency of 86%, internal loss of 10 cm-1 and transparency current density of 196 A/cm2. The LDs can operate under continuous-wave mode up to 273 K. The characteristic temperature are extracted to be 125 K in the temperature range of 77?150 K, and reduced to 90 K in the range of 150?273 K. The temperature coefficient of 0.3 nm/K is extracted in the temperature range of 77?273 K.

Influence of Bi on morphology and optical properties of InAs QDs

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We study the tsurface morphology and photoluminescence (PL) property of InAs quantum dots (QDs) on GaAs using bismuth (Bi) in the layer prior to or after the growth of QDs. Incorporating Bi in the layer prior to the QD deposition delays the onset of InAs QD formation resulting in a decrease in QD height and density. As a surfactant, adding Bi in the GaAs capping layer at a high growth temperature reduces the In surface diffusion length leading to uniform and well preserved InAs QDs in terms of height and density. The incorporation of 3% Bi at a low growth temperature, which forms a GaAsBi capping layer, can effectively lower the PL transition energy up to 163 meV and reduce the PL linewidth, leading to an emission wavelength of 1.365 ?m at 77 K.

- III-V-Bi compounds reveal a number of attractive physical properties promising for novel IR optoelectronic applications [1,2] and have received considerable attention as witnessed by the dedicated international workshops on this topic in the consecutive past four years. The isoelectronic nature of Bi atoms in III-Vs induces strong interactions with the energy bands of host materials leading to large band-gap reduction, less temperature sensitive band-gap and large spin-orbit split band. So far the most studied material is Ga(N)AsBi, while other dilute bismides have also been reported recently. In this paper, we shall briefly review several novel bismides: GaSbBi, InSbiBi, InAsBi, InPBi and InGaAsBi, and the Bi surfactant effect from our group, all grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE).

- Epitaxial growth of GaSb 1–x Bi x thin films on GaSb (100) substrates were studied by varying V/III ratio, growth temperatures and Bi flux using molecular beam epitaxy. It is demonstrated that reducing the V/III ratio facilitates Bi incorporation into GaSb effectively. The highest average Bi content up to 11% with locally up to 13% is achieved, confirmed by Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). X-ray diffraction and TEM show perfect crystal quality for the GaSb 1–x Bi x film with x = 5.6%. The composition dependence room temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the GaSb 1–x Bi x alloys with 0 < x ≤ 13% are reported for the first time. The band-gap energy decreases effectively with increasing the Bi content and in the range of 1 ≤ x ≤ 5.6%, the linear decreasing rate is 37 meV/Bi%. For the highest Bi content GaSb 1–x Bi x , the PL peak energy reaches 0.41 eV (3.0 μm), indicating that GaSb 1–x Bi x alloy has potentials in mid-infrared optoelectronic applications.

- We present results from measurements of the subthreshold lateral spontaneous emission profile in 1.3-mu m wavelength ridge waveguide InGaNAs quantum-well lasers using a scanning near-field optical microscopy technique. The measurements reveal the presence of significant lateral carrier diffusion which has a profound effect on the temperature dependence of the threshold current. This effect is frequently omitted when the characteristic temperature of the threshold current is considered.
