Abstract

We investigated the bright photoluminescence (PL) of CdS/ZnSe type-II quantum structures in which the lateral potential fluctuation plays an important role on the dynamics of carriers due to their long lifetime. The temperature dependence of PL energy showed the typical "s" -like shape with increasing temperature and Monte Carlo simulation well reproduced the experimental results qualitatively and quantitatively. The exponential distribution of localization energy for excitons was supposed by the simulation. We conclude that the bright PL originates in the recombination of localized interacting excitons gathered at a local potential minimum.
