Abstract

PhotoLuminescence (PL) measurement techniques have been used to investigate on MOCVD grown P-doped GaAs/Al x Ga1−x As(x = 0.3) Multiple Quantum Wells (MQW). The spectra reveal extrinsic luminescence characteristics of e-A0 transitions for interface and centre of well acceptors in addition to both bound and free exciton emissions.
