An in situ transmission electron microscopy study of Bi quantum dot (QD) formation an annealed GaAsBi/AlAs multiple well (MQW) structure is presented this work. The investigated structure, containing two GaAsBi QWs and embedded AlGaAs parabolic barrier (PQB), was grown on semi-insulating GaAs (100) transferred onto heating holder (DENS solutions) heated up to 650 °C. Sample evolution continuously recorded bright-field STEM mode. analysis revealed that QD occurs at lower annealing...
Single‐ and multi‐quantum well (QW) structures of Ga(AsBi)/GaAs with up to 10% Bi were grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) at 300–330°C substrate temperature.

We explore quantum well laser diodes based on two material systems, classical AlGaAs, and a rather exotic GaAsBi, with lasing at around 800 nm 1100 nm, respectively for applications in pulse oximetry. These spectral regions families were selected due to closely matched effective penetration depth into soft tissue. An improved design of the band structure device active areas was tested both yielding enhancement main parameters, output power threshold current. A maximum emission AlGaAs diode...

Formation of bismuth nanocrystals in GaAsBi layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy at 330 °C substrate temperature and post-growth annealed 750 is reported. Superlattices containing alternating 10 nm-thick AlAs were on semi-insulating GaAs substrate. have served as diffusion barriers for Bi atoms, the size nanoclusters which nucleated after sample annealing was correlating with thickness bismide layers. Energy-dispersive spectroscopy Raman scattering measurements evidenced that nanoparticles...
Influence of barrier material and structure on carrier quantum confinement in GaAsBi wells (QWs) is studied comprehensively. Single- multi-QW structures were grown using solid-state molecular beam epitaxy with conventional rectangular, step-like parabolically graded AlGaAs designs. It was discovered that room temperature photoluminescence increased by more than 50 times the QWs barriers (PGBs) if compared to standard rectangular structures. The enhancement reproducible within range growth...
We report on the fabrication of ZnO:N by thermal oxidation sputter-deposited zinc nitride. Through optimising several technological steps we achieved p-type conductivity with carrier concentration in mid 1017 cm–3 range and mobility ∼10 cm2/Vs. PL spectra films show a sharp peak at 3.36 eV, most likely due to neutral acceptor bound excitons. The transmittance p-ZnO:N whole visible spectrum is ∼80 % making it suitable for transparent electronics. (© 2005 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
Terahertz (THz) pulse generation from p-InAs, p-InSb, and n-InSb epitaxial layers are investigated using 1.55-μm wavelength femtosecond laser pulses for photoexcitation. The samples of (111) crystallographic orientation resulting in anisotropic photoconductivity.
