Popis: | Dependences of the photocurrent of InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-well heterostructures on reverse bias are studied. Features associated with the sequential passage of the boundary of the space-charge region through the quantum wells of the structure under study are found. It is shown experimentally that a reverse-bias region with negative photoconductivity exists for each quantum well. This region vanishes as the energy of optical-excitation photons increases. It is assumed that this effect is caused by a shift of the optical absorption edge in the quantum well, which occurs with partial compensation of the piezoelectric field by the electric field of the p-n junction in the quantum-well region. |
