研究了一些半导体低维结构的压力光谱.测得平均直径为26、52和62nm的In0.55Al0.45As/Al0.5Ga0.5As量子点发光峰的压力系数分别为82、94和98 meV/GPa.表明这些发光峰具有Γ谷的特性,这些量子点为Ⅰ型量子点.而平均直径为7nm的量子点发光峰的压力系数为-17 meV/GPa,具有X谷的特性.所以这种小量子点为Ⅱ型量子点.测得ZnS:Mn纳米粒子中Mn发光峰的压力系数为-34.6meV/GPa,与晶体场理论的预计一致.而DA对发光峰基本不随压力变化,表明它应该与ZnS基体中的表面缺陷有关.测得ZnS:Cu纳米粒子中Cu的发光峰的压力系数为63.2meV/GPa,与ZnS体材料的带隙压力系数相同.表明Cu引入的受主能级具有浅受主的某些特点.测得ZnS:Eu纳米粒子中Eu发光峰的压力系数为24.1meV/GPa,与晶体场理论的预计不同.可能和Eu的激发态与ZnS导带间的相互作用有关.

Photoluminescence of some low-dimensional semiconductor structures has been investigated under pressure. The measured pressure coefficients of In_ 0.55 Al_ 0.45 As/Al_ 0.5 Ga_ 0.5 As quantum dots with average diameter of 26, 52 and 62 nm are 82, 94 and 98 meV/GPa, respectively. It indicates that these quantum dots are type-Ⅰ dots. On the other hand, the measured pressure coefficient for quantum dots with 7 nm in size is -17meV/GPa, indicating the type-Ⅱ character. The measured pressure coefficient for Mn emission in ZnS:Mn nanoparticles is -34.6meV/GPa, in agreement with the predication of the crystal field theory. However, the DA emission is nearly independent on pressure, indicating that this emission is related to the surface defects in ZnS host. The measured pressure coefficient of Cu emission in ZnS:Cu nanoparticles is 63.2 meV/GPa. It implies that the acceptor level introduced by Cu ions has some character of shallow level. The measured pressure coefficient of Eu emission in ZnS:Eu nanoparticles is 24.11meV /GPa, in contrast to the p redication of the crystal field theory. Itmay be due to the strong interaction between the excited state of Euions and the conduction band of ZnS host.
