We present low-temperature (T = 4K) photoluminescence studies of the effect of adding nitrogen to 6-nm-wide single-strained GaAsSb quantum wells on GaAs. The samples were grown by both MBE and MOCVD techniques. The nominal Sb concentration is about 30%. Adding about 1 to 2% N drastically reduced the bandgap energies from 1 to 0.75 eV, or 1.20 to 1.64 μm. Upon performing ex situ rapid thermal anneals, 825°C for 10s, the band gap energies as well as the photoluminescence intensities increased. The intensities increased by an order of magnitude for the annealed samples and the band gap energies increased by about 50 - 100 meV, depending on growth temperatures. The photoluminescence linewidths tended to decrease upon annealing. Preliminary results of a first-principles band structure calculation for the GaAsSbN system are also presented.
