Abstract

We have measured photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolve photoluminescence (TRPL) from InGaN/GaN quantum dots (QDs) grown on passivated GaN surfaces by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Strong PL emission was observed from the QDs structure even at room temperature. By comparing the PL and TRPL dependence on temperature, a significant difference between the QD and wetting layer emissions was revealed. The QD emission is characterized by a strong exciton localization effect, which leads to a larger thermal activation energy, a nearly constant radiative lifetime independent of temperature and an unusual temperature behavior of the PL peak energy.
