Abstract
High quality AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs single quantum wells have been grown succ essfully on (311)A and (311)B Si-doped GaAs substrates by molecular be am epitaxy (MBE) at 600 degrees C and 650 degrees C. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of these samples are measured at 1.8 K. The calculations of the PL peak energies agree with those of experiments, suggesting t hat the conduction band offset at the interface between AlxGa1-xAs and GaAs is 65% and that the electron effective mass in both AlxGa1-xAs a nd GaAs in growth temperature on (311)A and (311)B substrates is discu ssed. We find that the surface of GaAs in (311)B can capture impuritie s more easily than that in (311)A.
