ABSTRACTWe investigate implantation of high purity HVPE GaN with Mg, Be, C, Zn, Cd, Ca, N, O, P, As, Ne, and Ar. After annealing at 1300 °C, the material is characterized using low temperature photoluminescence (PL). The Mg acceptors exhibit much better optical activation than Be, C, Zn, Cd, or Ca acceptors implanted and annealed under the same conditions. Acceptor-bound exciton peaks and well-resolved donor-acceptor pair bands are observed for both Mg and Zn. A broad peak centered near 2.78 eV is obtained for Cd, confirming that it is deeper than Zn. Isoelectronic As or P exhibit sharp no-phonon bound exciton lines at 2.952 and 3.200 eV, respectively. Defect-related bands centered at 2.2 and 2.35 eV are studied. Both Be and C strongly enhance the yellow (2.2 eV) PL band, but no other impurities do so, including O.

AbstractCuxGaySe2MOCVD and PVD grown films were structurally and optically characterized by Raman, Micro-Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Defect related photoluminescence excitation with wavelengths varying across the material band gap reveals: a) in Cu-rich CuGaSe2films, three band edge splitting due to the spin-orbit interaction and the crystal field, and donor-acceptor pair recombination between a shallow donor and two different acceptor levels, and b) in Ga-rich CuGaSe2films, donor-acceptor pair transitions between quasi-continua of donor and acceptor levels related to potential fluctuations. Raman spectra of CuxGaySe2films, excited by laser light near and below the material band gap, show intense modes at 197cm-1, 187cm-1, and 277cm-1, which can be used as indicators of crystallinity and Ga-content of the films. Polarization- and angular- dependent micro-Raman spectra of MOCVD CuGaSe2indicate that CuxSey-crystallites, dispersed on the surface of Cu-rich films, are grown oriented with their c-axis perpendicular to the film surface.

ABSTRACTHeteroepitaxial ZnSe grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) has been characterized using low temperature photoluminescence (PL) and reflectance. Excitonic PL linewidths of thick (relaxed) ZnSe layers are>1.4 meV, and depend little on the type of substrate or buffer layer used (e.g. GaAs or AlAs). In contrast, thin (pseudomorphic) ZnSe layers on AlAs buffer layers of moderate thickness are found to exhibit by far the sharpest (FWHM=0.22-0.37 meV) excitonic features ever observed for heteroepitaxial ZnSe grown by any technique. A tentative explanation for this result is that step-grading the lattice constant (by the AlAs buffer layer) has eliminated the crystal defects which produce localized strain fields that inhomogeneously broaden the peaks in ZnSe/GaAs. Acceptor-related PL peaks are discussed, and the first discrete donor-acceptor pair line spectrum in heteroepitaxial ZnSe is reported.

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.
