Popis: | The internal quantum efficiency of a series of InAs/GaSb superlattices was investigated as a function of carrier generation rate through variable excitation, quasicontinuous-wave photoluminescence measurements. GaSb thicknesses were varied to maximize the internal quantum efficiency for midwave infrared emission. Internal quantum efficiencies were determined from measurements of the photoluminescence radiance and extraction efficiencies computed within a two-slab model. The peak internal quantum efficiencies varied from 15% to 29% at 77 K, which is in good agreement with expectations from InAs/GaSb superlattice light-emitting diode performance. |
