The thesis investigates hot carrier relaxation and carrier recombination
mechanism of a InN thin film grown on LAO(LiAlO2) substrate with a ultrafast
time-resolved photoluminescence apparatus. Carriers were excited with laser pulses of energy 1.5 eV and of pulsewidth 150 fs from a Ti:sapphire laser. The photoexcited carriers relax excessive energy mostly within 10 ps thorough carrier-LO-phonon interaction. The effective carrier-LO-phonon emission times were estimated 197 to 58 fs in the temperature range from 250 to 35 K. The Shockley-Read-Hall coefficient was found around 0.8 ns-1. The Auger recombination was trivial at 35 K and become significant at 250 K. The fitted radiative recombination was much smaller than the theoretical estimate. Both effective carrier-LO-phonon scattering times and the radiative and nonradiative decay rates of the studied m-plane InN were found to be smaller than those of c-plane InN in other reports.
