Ga-Related Photoluminescence Lines In Ga-Doped Zno Grown By Plasma-Assisted Molecular-Beam Epitaxy, Z. Yang, David C. Look, J. L. Liu Feb 2009

Ga-Related Photoluminescence Lines In Ga-Doped Zno Grown By Plasma-Assisted Molecular-Beam Epitaxy, Z. Yang, David C. Look, J. L. Liu

Low-temperature photoluminescence (PL) and temperature-dependent Hall-effect (T-Hall) measurements were carried out in undoped and Ga-doped ZnO thin films grown by molecular-beam epitaxy. As the carrier concentration increases from 1.8×1018 to 1.8×1020 cm−3, the dominant PL line at 9 K changes from I1 (3.368–3.371 eV) to IDA (3.317–3.321 eV), and finally to I8 (3.359 eV). The dominance of I1, due to ionized-donor bound excitons, is unexpected in n-type samples but is shown to be consistent with the T-Hall results. We also show that IDA has characteristics of …

We have investigated the structural and optical properties of Ga-doped ZnO films grown on GaN templates by plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy. The carrier concentration in Ga-doped ZnO films can be controlled from 1.33×1018/cm3 to 1.13×1020/cm3. Despite high Ga incorporation, the linewidth of (0002) ω-rocking curves of Ga-doped ZnO films still lies in the range from 5 to 15 arc min. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of Ga-doped ZnO films show dominant near-bandedge emission with negligibly weak deep-level emission, independent of carrier concentration. The PL spectrum exhibits a new emission line at 3.358 eV, which corresponds to …


Electron-Irradiation-Induced Deep Level In N-Type Gan, Z-Q. Fang, Joseph W. Hemsky, David C. Look, M. P. Mack Jan 1998

Deep-level transient spectroscopy measurements of n-type GaN epitaxial layers irradiated with 1-MeV electrons reveal an irradiation-induced electron trap at EC−0.18 eV. The production rate is approximately 0.2 cm−1, lower than the rate of 1 cm−1 found for the N vacancy by Hall-effect studies. The defect trap cannot be firmly identified at this time. ©1998 American Institute of Physics.
