An AlInN/AlGaN microcavity (MC) containing a GaN/Al0.2Ga0.8N multiple quantum well (MQW) structure is investigated through room temperature (RT) photoluminescence and reflectivity experiments. A vacuum Rabi splitting as large as 50 meV at RT is reported fo ...

A report is presented on InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well laser diodes, grown by metal organic vapour phase epitaxy on c-plane sapphire substrates, including an Al0.83In0.17N cladding layer lattice-matched to GaN. Lasing action is demonstrated for gain-guid ...

We report on an annealing-induced "gate sinking" effect in a 2-nm-thin In0.17Al0.83N/AlN barrier high electron mobility transistor with Ir gate. Investigations by transmission electron microscopy linked the effect to an oxygen containing interlayer between ...

Lateral loss causes optical energy to leave the laser cavity in the transverse, lateral, direction, and is sometimes neglected to simplify the numerical simulations. However, in contrast to outcoupling and absorption losses, we show that the lateral loss c ...

Non-polar a-GaN films grown on r-sapphire by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) are studied using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Despite the small lattice mismatch in a-GaN ([1 0 (1) over bar 0] similar to 1.1% and [0 00 1] similar to 16%), high d ...

Intrinsic and extrinsic pinning and passivation of ...

We demonstrate hybrid laser diodes by combining n-type layers and an active region grown by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy with p-type layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy. These p-doped layers, grown at 740 degrees C, exhibit state-of-the-art electri ...

Crystallographic point defects (PDs) can dramatically decrease the efficiency of optoelectronic semiconductor devices, many of which are based on quantum well (QW) heterostructures. However, spatially resolving individual nonradiative PDs buried in such QW ...

We report on InAlN/GaN heterostructure metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSHFETs) with an InAlN barrier layer of different compositions (x(InN) 13, 17, and 21%) and ZrO2 gate-insulator/passivation. Static measurements yielded higher drai ...

In this paper, we investigate the nature of surface defects originating from the high-temperature (HT) GaN buffer and their incorporation into InGaN quantum wells (QWs) grown using the metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy technique. In particular, we conduct a ...

We report on low-resistivity GaN tunnel junctions (TJ) on blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Si-doped n(++)-GaN layers are grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition directly on LED epiwafers. Low growth temperature (

We report on the characteristics of blue superluminescent light emitting diodes based on the emission of InGaN quantum wells. Narrow ridge-waveguide devices realized by standard processing techniques and with extremely low facet reflectivity show single la ...

We demonstrate polariton lasing in a bulk ZnO planar microcavity under non-resonant optical pumping at a small negative detuning (delta similar to -1/6 the 130 meV vacuum Rabi splitting) and a temperature of 120 K. The strong coupling regime is maintained ...

Contactless electroreflectance (CER) has been applied to study optical transitions between the ground and excited states in polar and a-plane nonpolar 2 nm wide GaN/Al0.12Ga0.88N quantum well (QW) structures. In addition to the fundamental transition, CER ...

In-depth optical spectroscopic studies of single polar GaN/AlN quantum dots (QDs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy are carried out by means of low-temperature microphotoluminescence. Luminescence linewidths as low as 700 mu eV are obtained allowing thorough ...

Thin a-plane (1 1 2 0) GaN layers have been grown on r-plane (1 1 0 2) sapphire substrates by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE), using either a single-step high-temperature (HT) growth or a two-step growth method similar to that of metal organic vapor pha ...

We report on the direct observation of biexcitons in a III-nitride based multiple quantum well microcavity operating in the strong light-matter coupling regime by means of nonresonant continuous wave and time-resolved photoluminescence at low temperature. ...

We report the growth over 2 in. sapphire substrates of crack-free fully epitaxial nitride-based microcavities using two highly reflective lattice-matched AlInN/GaN distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs). The optical cavity is formed by an empty 3lambda/2 GaN ...

An etching technology for the patterning of suspended GaN structures on lattice matched AlInN sacrificial layers is studied. Selective dry RIE etching of GaN to AlInN is demonstrated, which allows effective pattern transfer without affecting lower layers. ...

We report on the achievement of freestanding GaN photonic crystal L7 nanocavities with embedded InGaN/GaN quantum wells grown by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy on Si (111). GaN was patterned by e-beam lithography, using a SiO2 layer as a hard mask, and ...
