Uchiki H, Kobayashi T, Sakaki H. Photoluminescence and energyâ€loss rates in GaAs quantum wells under highâ€density excitation. J. Appl. Phys.. 1987;62(3):1010–6.
Abstract: The timeâ€resolved luminescence spectra from excited conduction subbands in three samples of multiâ€quantumâ€well GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs (x=0.3 and 1) semiconductors with several well widths and barrier heights were obtained under highâ€density excitations by a 30â€ps pulsed laser at 532 nm, which generated electron–hole pairs to the concentration of 1010–1013/cm2 per well per pulse at 77 K. The temperature and the Fermi energy of electron were determined by fitting best the constructed timeâ€resolved spectrum to the observed, and the timeâ€dependent electron energy was obtained by using these parameters. The energyâ€loss rates of hot electrons are at least twice smaller than the calculated ones induced by the electronâ€polar phonon scattering, including the screening effect due to the high carrier density.

Abstract: We consider the carrier transport and plasmonic phenomena in the lateral carbon nanotube (CNT) networks forming the device channel with asymmetric electrodes. One electrode is the Ohmic contact to the CNT network and the other contact is the Schottky contact. These structures can serve as detectors of the terahertz (THz) radiation. We develop the device model for collective response of the lateral CNT networks which comprise a mixture of randomly oriented semiconductor CNTs (s-CNTs) and quasi-metal CNTs (m-CNTs). The proposed model includes the concept of the collective two-dimensional (2D) plasmons in relatively dense networks of randomly oriented CNTs (CNT “felt”) and predicts the detector responsivity spectral characteristics exhibiting sharp resonant peaks at the signal frequencies corresponding to the 2D plasmonic resonances. The detection mechanism is the rectification of the ac current due the nonlinearity of the Schottky contact current-voltage characteristics under the conditions of a strong enhancement of the potential drop at this contact associated with the plasmon excitation. The detector responsivity depends on the fractions of the s- and m-CNTs. The burning of the near-contact regions of the m-CNTs or destruction of these CNTs leads to a marked increase in the responsivity in agreement with our experimental data. The resonant THz detectors with sufficiently dense lateral CNT networks can compete and surpass other THz detectors using plasmonic effects at room temperatures.
