本篇論文使用摻鈦藍寶石雷射加上螢光上轉換(photoluminescence Up-
conversion) 技術對氮化銦進行光致螢光(photoluminescence)光譜量測。從不同延遲
時間的光致螢光光譜可以得到載子溫度隨時間的變化，藉此來研究在相同激發載子濃度，而背景載子濃度不同的情況下的載子冷卻情況。觀察到背景載子濃度較高時，會使得初始載子溫度較低。以及激發的載子濃度相同時，聲學聲子的溫度也會接近。我們比較了有考慮歐傑加熱與沒有歐傑加熱時的載子冷卻模型，有歐傑加熱時的模型明顯可以得到更佳的結果。所以在總載子濃度高的情況下，我們認為能量損失率還要考慮歐傑復合造成的加熱影響，才能更好的解釋載子冷卻的情形。

We use Ti: Sapphire Laser and photoluminescence up-conversion technique to study Time-resolved photoluminescence in InN. From Time-resolved photoluminescence, we obtain the carrier temperature vary with time. From time dependent carrier temperature, we can study carrier cooling in InN. In the same photoexcited carrier density, we found that when the background carrier density increase, the initial carrier temperature decrease.
By compare energy lose rate with auger heating and energy lose rate without auger heating, energy lose rate with auger heating will get better result. Therefore, in high carrier density, we consider that in order to explain the carrier cooling better we should consider auger heating.
