Mitigating Auger recombination is crucial for improving the performance of nanotechnology devices. Strategies include:
Material engineering: Developing materials with lower intrinsic Auger recombination rates. Quantum well structures: Using quantum wells to confine carriers and reduce the probability of Auger recombination. Device design: Optimizing device structures to minimize carrier densities where Auger recombination is prominent. Surface passivation: Reducing surface states that can act as recombination centers in nanostructures.
