Abstract
The ambipolar diffusion coefficient and carrier recombination lifetime in InGaP/InAlP multiple quantum wells and InGaP epitaxial layers grow n by gas source molecular beam epitaxy have been determined by measuri ng the diffraction efficiency decay of transient gratings induced by p icosecond laser pulses. The multiple quantum well room temperature amb ipolar diffusion coefficient of carrier transport parallel to the grow th plane was measured to be approximately half that of the bulk materi al.
