Optical properties of a structure with a periodic system of 100 InGaN quantum wells (QWs) separated by non-tunneling GaN barriers have been investigated at room temperature. The structure periodicity corresponded to the Bragg diffraction condition at the frequency of the QW excitons. Numerical modeling using transfer matrices gave a quantitatively accurate fit of the experimental results. The model included the resonance response of A, B, and C excitons in QWs and an optical absorption tail in the barriers and buffer layer. We have determined the radiative and non-radiative broadening of the excitons in the InGaN QWs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
