摘要
We use time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy and photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy to measure the valence band parameters of hexagonal wurtzite InP nanowires. The A exciton emission and excitation energy is observed at 1.504 eV as expected. Excitation spectra show that the B and C hole bands are 30 and 161 meV above the A hole band. From these measurements, we obtain the crystal field and spin-orbit energies of 52 meV and 139 meV, respectively. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3463036]
