Abstract

Quenching and enhancement of exciton photoluminescence were observed when applying the external voltage to the Shottky barrier. The effect is explained taking into account the ionization of free excitons by the electric field and voltage induced variation of the barrier width. The value of ionization electric field for free exciton E0 = 105 V/cm is estimated.
