Summary • A power and temperature dependent PL measurement is proposed to determine the internal quantum efficiency and recombination coefficients • A set of samples are designed to give almost same absorption for the pumping laser light (He-Ne) • The recycling factor of slab structure is modeled and numerical calculated for various thicknesses • 98.5% internal quantum efficiency is determined for GaAs at 100 K with ΔF = -3.5 kT • The SRH recombination coefficient is determined to be around 2 ~ 7 x 106 /s at a temperature range from 50 K to 200 K • The SRH recombination coefficient is related to the barrier thickness and the surfactant will decrease the SRH recombination
