Abstract
We have examined the effects of electron-hole plasma generation on excitonic absorption phenomena in nipi-doped In0.2Ga 0.8As/GaAs multiple quantum wells (MQWs) using a novel technique called electron beam-induced absorption modulation imaging. The electron-hole plasma is generated by a high-energy electron beam in a scanning electron microscope and is used as a probe to study the MQW absorption modulation. The influence of structural defects on the diffusive transport of carriers is imaged with a μm-scale resolution.
