Summary: | 碩士 === 中原大學 === 應用物理研究所 === 86 === Investigation on the physical properties of Ga1-xAlxAs alloys series in this thesis, and the lowest and higher bang gaps,E0,E0+Δ0,E1,and E1+Δ1were calculated , and measured.In earlier study, it is believed that the virtual-crystal approximation is appropriate for analyzing the composition of compounded semiconductors , and the transition energy are linear with composition x.But now, we know that the transition energies have an quadratic form which dependence on alloy composition x , i.e, E(x)=A+Bx+Cx^2 and in which we focused on getting bowing parameter C in the equation by using the dielectric model method, the empirical relation of Woolley, and photoreflectance experiment. Then we estimated the value of spin-oribit splitting Δ1. Theoretical calculated are compared with experiment measurements by photoreflectance and were found that the dielectric model method has a better agreement than the empirical relation of Woolley. Finally, we measured materials of the Ga1-xAlxAs/GaAs single Quantum wells by reflectance experiment.
