RESUMEN
We study the influence of optical selection rules and polarization splittings on properties of exciton polaritons in a planar AlGaAs waveguide containing embedded GaAs quantum wells. We demonstrate that transverse electric and transverse magnetic modes couple differently with light- and heavy-hole quantum well excitons, which leads to distinct polarization splittings of the resulting polariton modes. The experimental data are in good agreement with modeling based on theoretical data for the optical selection rules for quantum well excitons.
RESUMEN
Heterovalent CsPbBr3 doping with Bi results in a significant red shift of the optical absorption of both single-crystal and powdered samples. The results of low-temperature (3.6 K) photoluminescence studies of perovskite single crystals indicate that the position of the excitonic luminescence peak remains unaffected by Bi doping that, in turn, infers that the band gap of Bi-doped perovskite is not changed as well. The position and state density distribution of the valence band and Fermi level of single-crystal perovskites were determined by another direct method of ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. The obtained results show that Bi3+ doping causes no changes in the valence band structure but an increase in the Fermi level by 0.6 eV. The summary of the obtained results directly demonstrates that the concept of the band-gap engineering in Bi3+-doped CsPbBr3 halide perovskite is not valid.
RESUMEN
We present an optical study of MAPbBr3 single crystal grown from solution. The crystal Pm3m symmetry was confirmed by electron backscatter diffraction. Our major attention was focused on optical effects related to the excitonic states in MAPbBr3. Photoluminescence temperature dependence of narrow exciton resonance showed encouragingly low inhomogeneous broadening Γ ≈ 0.5 meV that allows one to distinguish the signals from free excitons and those arising from recombination of excitons localized on defects. Excitonic origin of the resonance was proved by its superlinear pump intensity dependence, in contrast to the linear behavior of the defect-assisted recombination bands. For the first time, the phonon replicas originating from free exciton recombination accompanied by partial energy transfer to the phonons were observed in high-resolution PL spectra and confirmed by independent low-temperature Raman scattering experiments. In turn, low-temperature, low-frequency Raman scattering studies let us resolve the structure of the low-frequency phonon spectrum.
