The samples of (GaAs) (AlAs) superlattices (SLs) were grown by MIBE method on (001)-orientedsemi-thsulathg GaAs substrates. The photoluminescence (PL) was measured at 77 K and under hydrostaticpressure in the range of 0- 30 Kbar. The dependence of the energy separation between conduction band F-like and X- like levels on n values was obtained from the measured results. The transition from type I totype II was observed at atmosphere in a SL of n = 1 1. It is in good agreement with the calculated resultbased on Kronig-Penney model. It is found that the pressure coefficient of X-like states decreases with de-creasing the n values. And it is explained by a combined effects. The pressure dependence of the levels andluminescence intensities demonstrates that F-X mixing is quite weak.1. INTRODUCTIONIt is well known that the lowest conduction band states are in F-valley for bulk GaAs and in X-valleyfor bulk AlAs. In GaAs/AlAs SLs,the X-valley in AlAs is lower than that in GaAs due to the band offset. |
