Abstract
Unintentional doping is known to give rise to nonuniform electric fields in PIN diodes,1 which can broaden optical absorption features and mask subtle electric-field-dependent effects. We used low-temperature photocurrent spectroscopy and photoluminescence as complementary methods for mapping the field profile within the intrinsic region of a quantum-well diode.
