Abstract
Room temperature carrier kinetics has been investigated in the type-II W-design AlSb/InAs/Ga0:80In0:20As0:15Sb0:85/InAs/AlSb quantum well emitting in the mid-infrared spectral range (at 2.54 μm). A timeresolved reflectance technique, employing the non-degenerated pump-probe scheme, has been used as a main experimental tool. Based on that, a primary carrier relaxation time of 2:3 ± 0:2 ps has been found, and attributed to the initial carrier cooling process within the quantum well states, while going towards the ground state via the carrier-optical phonon scattering mechanism. The decay of a quasi-equilibrium carrier population at the quantum well ground states is primarily governed by two relaxation channels: (i) radiative recombination within distribution of spatially separated electrons and holes that occurs in the nanosecond time scale, and (ii) the hole tunnelling out of its confining potential, characterized by a 240 ± 10 ps time constant.
