Carrier relaxation in GaAs v-groove quantum wires and the effects of localization

Carrier relaxation processes have been investigated in GaAs/Al xGa1-xAs v-groove quantum wires (QWRs) with a large subband separation (ΔE ≃ 46 meV). Signatures of inhibited carrier relaxation mechanisms are seen in temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence-excitation measure...
