Optical Characterization of III-Nitride and II-V Semiconductor Nanowires

Lindgren, David LU (2014)
Abstract
The optical properties of III-V semiconductor nanowires for optical devices have been investigated by

photoluminescence spectroscopy, cathodoluminescence spectroscopy and cathodoluminescence imaging. The

material systems that have been studied include the nitrides (InN, GaN and AlN) and ternaries, and a few common

phosphides and arsenides. Due to the different optical properties of the materials, they have different possible

emission ranges and applications, from ultra violet and visible to infrared light and from water purification and

illumination to optical communication. The different material systems have been investigated in separate projects,

but together they in principle share... (More)

LEDs with high external quantum efficiencies. (Less)
