Luminescent centers involving Ag impurities were introduced into CdS single crystals through doping with 109Cd radioisotopes. Thus, the Ag concentration increases with time as more 109Cd decays. This enables a study of photoluminescence versus Ag concentration in a given crystal without changing the concentrations of other impurities.A new emission band at 5600 Å results in addition to the 6100 Å band present in Ag-doped crystals using conventional techniques. This new emission is quenched with increasing Ag concentration at high concentrations. Also concentration quenching by the Ag impurities occurs for the green edge, and the bound-exciton emissions I1, and I2. The quenching is explained by assuming a donor–acceptor recombination process.The new emission probably arises from the recombination of a bound electron with a bound hole at a distant donor–acceptor pair, with Ag as the acceptor. The acceptor role of Ag is supported by electrical conductivity measurements on 109Cd-doped crystals. Estimates are obtained for the acceptor binding energy, the donor concentrations, and the separations of pairs responsible for the new 5600 Å emission and the green-edge emission. The 6100 Å emission is attributed to Ag closely associated with other impurities. These conclusions are verified by our temperature annealing and quenching experiments.

AbstractThe role of the luminescence killer center iron in GaP has been studied by the optically detected magnetic resonance technique. Observations of strong Fe°(3d5) and O0 resonance in the (Zn,O) donor-acceptor pair (DAP) and the 0.841 eV electron capture (EC) luminescence bands show that the luminescence killing action is via (Fe,O) DAP recombination.Two distinct but similar (Fe,O) DAP processes were detected: The (Fe0,O0) process with a slower recombination rate and (Fe0,O0*) process, with a faster effective relaxation rate, involving the oxygen excited state.

ABSTRACTThe temperature and excitation intensity dependence of photoluminescence (PL) spectra have been studied in thin films of SiC grown by chemical vapor deposition on Si (100) substrates. The low power PL spectra from all samples exhibited a donor-acceptor pair PL band which involves a previously undetected deep acceptor whose binding energy is approximately 470 meV. This deep acceptor is found in every sample studied independent of growth reactor, suggesting the possibility that this background acceptor is at least partially responsible for the high compensation observed in Hall effect studies of undoped films of cubic SiC.

We report on the time-resolved luminescence of the defect-related violet band from undoped AlN epitaxial layers grown on sapphire and SiC. For both measurements in photoluminescence and in cathodoluminescence a decay of algebraic nature at long times is observed. This is typical for donor-acceptor pair transitions. We compare the behavior of this band to that of the generically yellow luminescence of GaN.

Exciplexes may be formed by exciting either partner of a given electron donor-acceptor pair. As the formation of such exciplexes is reversible, dissociation may lead to excitation energy transfer. ��� The temperature dependence of fluorescence excitation spectra has proved to be a powerful tool for exploring these systems.
