Photoluminescence of HgCdTe heterostructures with multiple quantum wells
An analysis of experimental data obtained by various authors via recording infrared (IR) photoluminescence (PL) in heteroepitaxial structures based on solid CdxHg1−xTe (CHT) solutions with multiple quantum wells is presented. A theoretical analysis of optical transition energies is conducted based on a self-consistent solution to the Poisson and Schröbinger equations for a quantum well. Experimental data obtained at different temperatures, pump powers, and excitation wavelengths are analyzed.
