Sa. Kazaryan et al., NONLINEARITY OF THE PHOTOLUMINESCENCE EMI TTED BY A QUANTUM-WELL DOPED WITH TITANIUM ATOMS, Kvantovaa elektronika, 22(6), 1995, pp. 605-607
Bistable luminescence was observed experimentally when a quantum-well
gallium arsenide layer was excited with laser radiation. The bistabili
ty appeared at a specific concentration of titanium atoms, which were
used to dope the quantum-well layer and the substrate. The luminescenc
e bistability was not observed when the investigated samples were dope
d with chromium or vanadium.
