Abstract
The optical properties and carrier dynamics of an ensemble and of single nanowires with diameters < 200 nm are investigated. The optical properties of single nanowires are compared with the PL spectra of the as- grown ensemble. Furthermore, we present measurements at high excitation densities in which a sharp line appears resulting from resonator effects inside the nanowires.
