Abstract

Photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence measurements of strained undoped In0.15Ga0.85As/GaAs and In0.15Ga0.85As/Al0.15Ga0.85As quantum well structures with emission lines attributed to the first electron–first heavy hole and first electron–first light hole excitonic transitions have been analysed theoretically within the eight-band effective mass approximation. For In0.15Ga0.85As/GaAs the results are consistent with either type I or type II alignment of the light hole band. In the case of In0.15Ga0.85As/Al0.15Ga0.85As our results indicate type II alignment for the light hole band and offset ratio ofQ= 0.83.
