Photoluminescence study of (GaAs1-xSbx/InyGa1-yAs)/GaAs bilayer quantum well grown by molecular beam epitaxy

Photoluminescence study of (GaAs1-xSbx/InyGa1-yAs)/GaAs bilayer quantum wells (BQWs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) were carried out. Temperature and excitation power dependent photoluminescence (PL) study indicated that the band alignment of the BQWs is type - II. The origin of the double-peak luminescence was discussed. Under optimized growth conditions, the PL emission wavelength from the BQWs has been extend up to 1.31 mu m with a single peak at room temperature.
