The effect of interlayer growth temperature on the emission wavelength was probed and studied by optical, structural, and electrical properties. Numerical studies on the effect of indium composition and quantum confinement Stark effect were also carried out to verify the experimental data. The results suggest that the redshift of the peak emission wavelength is originated from the enhanced indium incorporation, which results from the reduced strain during the growth of quantum wells.EnglishQuantum-wellsArticle10.1063/1.3694054
