In this work we present the optical properties of high-In content In(Ga)As nanowires (NW) and InAs/InAsP core-shell NWs grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and hybrid MBE-metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy on Si substrates. The emission characteristics of these NWs are measured either directly in free-standing geometry or after transfer in horizontal geometry by a specific micro photoluminescence (uPL) setup designed for the infrared spectral range. Both temperature and power-dependent measurements are performed highlighting the dynamics of the PL peak energy and intensities. The InGaAs NWs show a characteristic transition in PL peak energy with increasing Ga content and also with dominant wurtzite crystal phase [1]. In addition, we elucidate the effect of the InAsP shell thickness onto the intensity and near-band edge emission of InAs NWs. Furthermore, we present absorption measurements of homogeneous InGaAs NW arrays obtained with a UV/VIS/NIR setup. [1] S. Hertenberger, et al., Appl. Phys. Lett. 101, 043116 (2012).
