Abstract

We present results on the time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) of a GaAs/AlGaAs resonant cavity enhanced (RCE) structure. The PL decay time, τd = 150 ps for RCE is faster compared to a conventional p-i-n structure. This is due to Fabry-Perot resonant microcavity (FPRM) enhancement and standing wave effect (SWE) that increases the transition probability of electron-hole recombination. The PL decay time yields information on the speed of semiconductor structures when they are fabricated into devices.
