摘要: Abstract The observation of single monolayer well size fluctuations in a superlattice is reported. Luminescence experiments show that several free exciton peaks occur, each them corresponding, the same layers, to discreet width differing by one from next one. This attribution confirmed intentional introduction larger wells structure. Photoluminescence excitation confirm this interpretation.
