CuIn x Ga 1-x Se 2 films were synthesized by graphite box annealing of In/Ga/Cu/Se stacked elemental layers deposited by thermal evaporation onto sodalime glass substrates. Photoluminescence (PL) studies were carried out in near stoichiometric and copper-rich films with Ga/(In+Ga) ratios varying between 0.24–0.29. The PL spectra were dominated by peaks at ~1.19 eV and 0.87 eV with a shoulder at ~0.84 eV. There was also a peak around 1.3 eV which could be assigned to the absorption from the split-off band. The transitions at ~1.19 eV and 0.87 eV were due to excitonic transition and donor-acceptor pair formation respectively.

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.

ABSTRACTβ-Ga2O3 nanostructures including nanowires, nanorods, nano and micro-pillars, nanosheets and nanobelts were successfully fabricated by simple and efficient thermal evaporation and condensation technique under argon flow.. The structures have been investigated by the electron microscope, XRD and EDX techniques and shown that nanostructures are predominatly β-Ga2O3 without other crystallographic phases. Cathodouminescence of as-grown nanostructures was investigated in the 10-300 K temperature range and exhibit luminescence band centered at 485 nm at 300 K due to donor-acceptor pair recombination. A new luminescence band centered at 387 nm developes at temperature below 150 K due to self-trapped exciton recombination.

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.
