Popis: We present a systematic investigation of (GaAs)l(AlAs)m (l≂m) superlattices by photoluminescence excitation at T=2 K in the energy range of 1.52–2.42 eV. The luminescence spectra of the superlattice samples differ strongly from the spectra of the ternary Al0.5Ga0.5As alloy. The luminescence peak energy is largest for l,m=3 and decreases when l,m 15 display a splitting of light‐ and heavy‐hole states. The optical measurements confirm that this new material has properties which are very different from the ternary Al0.5Ga0.5As alloy.
