Abstract |
We employ cathodoluminescence (CL) technique for evaluation of in-depth and in-plane instabilities of light emission in series of InGaN quantum well structures, including laser diode structures. Heteroepitaxial and homoepitaxial InGaN/GaN MOVPE-grown structures are studied. Stimulated emission under electron beam pumping in a conventional CL set up is achieved. We study light emission properties from laser structures and their relation to microstructure details. Large in-plane fluctuations of light emission are also present for excitation densities larger than the threshold densities for the stimulated emission. The latter indicates that potential fluctuations are not fully screened in the active regions of laser structures even at large excitation densities.
