We report on high-excitation luminescence spectroscopy in InxGa1-xN/GaN multiple quantum wells grown by MOCVD over sapphire and bulk GaN substrates. High excitation conditions enabled us to achieve a screening of the built-in field by free carriers. This allowed for the evaluation of the influence of band potential fluctuations due to the variation in In-content on efficiency of spontaneous and stimulated emission. InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells grown on bulk GaN substrate exhibit a significantly lower stimulated emission threshold and thus enhanced lateral emission. Transient and dynamic properties of luminescence indicate a significant reduction in compositional disorder in homoepitaxially grown structures |
