Phonon Confinement and Electron Capture Time in Quantum Well

K. Kálna-1997-10-01-Acta Physica Polonica A

TL;DRAbstract

The electron capture time via an electron-polar optical phonon interaction is calculated considering the confinement of a phonon in a GaAs quantum well laser structure. The effect of the phonon confinement decreases the electron capture time about twice comparing the electron capture time . obtained from the interaction of an electron with the bulk phonon.
