Abstract

We have inverstigated the dynamics of photoexcited carriers in InGaAs/GaAs quantum wells using the photoluminescence up-conversion technique. In this study we describe the observation of an extremely fast (600fs) capture process in shallow InGaAs/GaAs quantum wells, resulting from resonant tunnelling from impurities in the GaAs barrier.
