Abstract
We present a temperature-dependent time-resolved photoluminescence study of the nonradiative processes in polar GaN/AlN quantum dots and quantum wells. The photoluminescence decay times of quantum wells drop above 50 K due to the presence of nonradiative recombination centers. In contrast, the three-dimensional carrier confinement in quantum dots efficiently suppresses nonradiative processes up to room temperature, even for radiative decay times reaching the microsecond range.
