The influence of surface defect formation induced by anode oxidation and helium ion irradiation of the In(Ga)As/GaAs quantum-size heterostructure surface on photoelectric spectra of these structures has been investigated. It is shown that the photosensitivity of the ground-state optical transition in quantum dots and wells and the temperature dependence of the photosensitivity at low temperatures are sensitive indicators of the defects formed in the quantum-size layers, which are effective recombination centers. |
