Abstract

In this paper we present an electroluminescence study of electron populations in the quasiconfined excited states of two GaAs-AlGaAs double-barrier resonant tunnelling structures. We investigate the dependence of the electron population on both electron collector barrier width, which controls the electron tunnelling-out time, and on the confined level energy spacing, which controls the intersubband scattering time. We show that the observed excited state populations are in good agreement with the predictions of a rate equation analysis.
