Phonon confinement and electron capture time in quantum well

Description

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