Mercury Telluride ( HgTe ) nanocrystals with a mean size of 5.35 nm have been synthesized by an electrochemical technique. Structural analysis by transmission electron microscopy and glancing angle X-ray diffraction studies indicate the presence of cubic phase HgTe nanocrystals in the deposit. Optical absorption measurements reveal two well resolved excitonic peaks around 578.5 nm and 550 nm attributed to heavy hole valence band (HVB)–conduction band (CB) and light hole valence band (LVB)–CB transitions, respectively, and suggest a band opening of bulk inverted narrow band gap HgTe as a result of strong quantum confinement effect (QCE). Visible photoluminescence (PL) of HgTe nanocrystals indicates free exciton transition around 579.5 nm as observed from the PL measurement at 300 K along with a bound exciton dominated band around 588 nm. Micro-Raman measurements at 300 K indicate the 1LO vibrational mode at 142.6 cm-1 shifted by 6 cm-1 from its standard bulk value and confirm the QCE.

AbstractWe describe new results observed during resonant excitation in the excitonic region of GaAs grown directly on Si by organometallic vapor phase epitaxy. Two resolved features were found in the light hole photoluminescence (PL) region, one identified with a free exciton process and the other with donor-related transitions. Features which track the laser excitation line were observed and identified with a process in which a donor is excited from the n=l ground state to an n=2 excited state. The PL excitation spectra associated with these features have spectral widths as narrow as 1.5 meV. PL spectral widths of ~3 meV have been attained for the heavy hole exciton band, representing the narrowest value obtained for OMVPE material and an improvement of about 30% over our best previous results.

Modern physics distinguishes three fundamental properties of atomic nuclei: mass; spin and related magnetic moment; volume (surrounding field strength), which are the source of isotope effects. The experiments showed that the isotope substitution of the light isotope with the hard one increased the band-to-band transition energy Eg, as well as the exciton binding energy Ebboth in semiconductors and insulators. The representative manifestation of the spin has been observed in photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy in highly enriched28Si crystals with shallow donor P, as well as in the separation of13C and12С isotope in magnetic field.
