Abstract
We have observed selective carrier injection into GaAs/AlGaAs V-groove quantum wires (QWRs) via self-ordered vertical quantum wells (VQWs). Room-temperature I–V characteristics of QWR diodes show a turn-on voltage lower by 0.2 V as compared with planar QW diodes, consistent with the band-gap reduction of 0.2 eV at the vertical QW. This selective injection results in narrow linewidth electroluminescence (∼5 nm at 300 K) emanating exclusively from the QWR from 10 K up to 300 K.
