Abstract
Using scanning-tunneling-microscope light-emission (STM-LE) spectroscopy, we have investigated the transport properties of minority carriers in p-Al0.3Ga0.7As/p-GaAs quantum well (QW) structures. The optical measurements were performed on a cleaved (110) surface at room temperature. The STM-LE spectra were measured by injecting hot electrons from the STM tip positioned at different distances from the QWs. The emission intensity from individual wells as a function of the tip-well distance was found to decay with two distinct decay constants.
