Photoluminescence spectroscopy of bandgap reduction in dilute InNAs alloys
نویسندگان
چکیده
Photoluminescence PL has been observed from dilute InNxAs1−x epilayers grown by molecular-beam epitaxy. The PL spectra unambiguously show band gap reduction with increasing N content. The variation of the PL spectra with temperature is indicative of carrier detrapping from localized to extended states as the temperature is increased. The redshift of the free exciton PL peak with increasing N content and temperature is reproduced by the band anticrossing model, implemented via a 5 5 k·p Hamiltonian. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.

Photoluminescence of InNAs alloys: S-shaped temperature dependence and conduction-band nonparabolicity
Photoluminescence PL has been used as a means of unambiguously observing band gap reduction in InNAs epilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The observed redshift in room temperature emission as a function of nitrogen concentration is in agreement with the predictions of the band anticrossing BAC model, as implemented with model parameters derived from tight-binding calculations. The tempera...
متن کاملBandgap engineering of Cd(x)Zn(1-x)Te nanowires.
Bandgap engineering of single-crystalline alloy Cd(x)Zn(1-x)Te (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) nanowires is achieved successfully through control of growth temperature and a two zone source system in a vapor-liquid-solid process. Extensive characterization using electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy and photoluminescence shows highly crystalline alloy nanowires with precise tuning of the bandgap. It is well know...

متن کاملPseudopotential theory of dilute III–V nitrides
We review the empirical pseudopotential method and its recent applications to the III–V nitride alloys GaAsN, GaPN, GaInAsN and GaAsPN. We discuss how studies using this method have provided an explanation for many experimentally observed anomalous nitride phenomena, including sharp photoluminescence lines in dilute alloys, high effective masses, Stoke’s shift between emission and absorption in...
