Luminescent properties of GaN films grown on porous silicon substrate
2010
Abstract GaN films have been grown on porous silicon at high temperatures (800–1050 °C) by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy. The optical properties of GaN layers were investigated by photoluminescence (PL) and cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy. PL spectra recorded at 5 K exhibit excitonic emissions around 3.36–3.501 eV and a broad yellow luminescence at 2.2 eV. CL analysis at different electron excitation conditions shows spatial non-uniformity in-depth of the yellow and the band-edge emissions. These bands of luminescence are broadened and red- or blue-shifted as the electron beam penetrates in the sample. These behaviors are explained by a change of the fundamental band gap due to re…
Cathodoluminescence study of undoped GaN films: Experiment and calculation
2009
Abstract In this paper, we report the theoretical and experimental results of cathodoluminescence (CL) from GaN layers grown at 800 °C by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) on silicon substrate. The CL spectra recorded at room temperature reveal the near band-edge emission at 3.35–3.42 eV and a broad yellow luminescence at 2.2 eV. The CL depth analysis at constant power excitation shows inhomogeneous CL distribution in depth of these emissions as the electron beam increases from 3 to 25 keV. There appears a blue shift of the CL band-edge peaks with increasing sample depth. This behavior is explained by a change of the fundamental band gap due to residual strain and the local temperat…
