Field-assisted Shockley-Read-Hall recombinations in III-Nitride quantum wells
Abstract
The physical process driving low-current non-radiative recombinations in high-quality III-Nitride quantum wells is investigated. Lifetime measurements reveal that these recombinations scale with the overlap of the electron and hole wavefunctions and show weak temperature dependence, in contrast with common empirical expectations for Shockley-Read-Hall recombinations. A model of field-assisted multiphonon point defect recombination in quantum wells is introduced, and shown to quantitatively explain the data. This study provides insight on the high efficiency of III-Nitride light emitters.
