摘要
We study the effects of low-temperature capping (200-450 degrees C) on the optical properties of GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells. Photoluminescence measurements clearly show the formation of abundant nonradiative recombination centers in an AlGaAs capping layer grown at 200 degrees C, while there is a slight degradation of the optical quality in AlGaAs capping layers grown at temperatures above 350 degrees C compared to that of a high-temperature capping layer. In addition, the optical quality can be restored by post-growth annealing without any structural change, except for the 200 degrees C-capped sample.
