For InGaN quantum wells (QW) indium and QW width fluctiations are a critical issue, as they cause carrier localization and affect the performance of InGaN LEDs and laser diodes (LD). We compare experimental gain spectra measured by the Hakki-Paoli mehotd with a microscopic theory including quantum-confined stark effect (QCSE) and many-body effects to analyse the contribution of homogeneous and inhomogeneous broadening to the QW gain. In particular we perform low-temperature gain spectroscopy of InGaN LDs which confirms the notion that inhomogeous broadening due to structual variations is a significant contribution to QW gain in InGaN LDs. From these measurements we can also give an estimate of the nonradiative recombination rate.
