Abstract

GaSb/AlGaSb multi-quantum well (MQW) structures with an AlSb initiation layer and a relatively thick GaSb buffer layer grown on Si (0 0 1) substrates were prepared by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images and high-resolution X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns indicated definite MQW structures. The photoluminescence (PL) emission around 1.55 μm wavelength was observed for 10.34 nm GaSb/30 nm Al 0.6Ga 0.4Sb MQW structure at room temperature. Dependence of PL emission energy on GaSb well width was well explained by finite square well potential model.
