摘要
The energy levels of very short-period (GaAs)n-(AlAs) n superlattices (n≤4) were investigated by photoluminescence (PL). The results show that these superlattices are type II but the lowest conduction bands are Xx,y for n≤3 and Xz for n=4, respectively. (Here Xz is the valley with k parallel to the growth axis.) In both cases the X valleys are very close to each other. PL decay, PL excitation, and PL under uniaxial stress confirm this identification. Al0.5Ga 0.5As shows very different behavior, showing that even for n=1 our samples are true superlattices.
