  • Abstract
    Effect of strain on thresholdless Auger recombination processes in quantum wells has been studied theoretically. A detailed analysis of overlap integrals between the initial and final states of the particles has been carried out. It is shown that the strain both qualitatively and quantitatively affects the overlap integral between the electron and hole states. It is demonstrated that the Auger recombination rate decreases as compressive strain increases
