Abstract
A study has been made of the photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence spectra of GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs multiple quantum wells (x=0.30-0.35) grown by organometallic hydride epitaxy, and intended for IR detectors. Add itional lines and a broadening of spectral bands are observed. These c hanges can be explained primarily on the basis of fluctuations in the width of the quantum wells. Donor impurity states affect the spectra. The effect of factors manifested in the luminescence spectra on the IR absorption spectra is discussed.
