摘要
The luminescence decay of excitons in disordered low-dimensional semiconductors with quantum confinement is shown experimentally to be characterized by a nonexponential profile and an absence of spectral diffusion. We are able to describe this luminescence as a hopping-assisted recombination using the correlation function approach to nondispersive transport developed by H. Scher, M. F. Shlesinger, and J. T. Bendler [Phys. Today 41, 26 (1991)]. We suggest a simple derivation of analytical functions which accurately describe the anomalous luminescence decays of disordered II-VI superlattices and of porous silicon, and show that this model includes exponential and Kohlrausch [Pogg. Ann. Phys. 119, 352 (1863)] (stretched-exponential) relaxations as special cases.
