In April 2016 Manchester eScholar was replaced by the University of Manchester’s new Research Information Management System, Pure. In the autumn the University’s research outputs will be available to search and browse via a new Research Portal. Until then the University’s full publication record can be accessed via a temporary portal and the old eScholar content is available to search and browse via this archive.

Abstract

We report the low-temperature photoluminescence investigation of a single-barrier GaAs/AlAs/ GaAs p-i-n heterostructure with applied magnetic fields of up to 17 T. Under conditions of forward bias, electrons and holes accumulate at opposite sides of the barrier to form two coupled 2D layers of tunable density. We observe an onset of polarized recombination peaks originating from these layers when the filling factor is immediately lower than two. From the properties of the onset and the shift of the peaks with applied voltage we conclude that we have to take into account the Coulomb interaction between the layers to describe properly the physical situation of the system and we propose the picture of a correlated ground state to explain the experimental findings.
