There are several types of photoluminescence, each providing different insights into the material properties:
Steady-State Photoluminescence: Measures the intensity of emitted light as a function of wavelength under continuous illumination. Time-Resolved Photoluminescence: Investigates the dynamics of excited states by measuring the decay time of the emitted light after a short excitation pulse. Temperature-Dependent Photoluminescence: Explores how the photoluminescent properties change with temperature, offering insights into exciton binding energies and defect states.
