- We studied the shape and energy position of near-band-edge photoluminescence spectra of InN epitaxial layers with different doping levels. We found that the experimental spectra of InN layers with moderate doping level can be nicely interpreted in the frames of the "free-to-bound" recombination model in degenerate semiconductors. For carrier concentrations above n>5x10(18) cm(-3) the emission spectra can also be modeled satisfactorily, but a contribution due to a pushing up of nonequilibrium holes over the thermal delocalization level in the valence band tails should be considered in the model. The emission spectra of samples with low doping level were instead explained as a recombination from the bottom of the conduction band to a shallow acceptor assuming the same value of the acceptor binding energy estimated from the spectra of highly doped samples. Analyzing the shape and energy position of the free-electron recombination spectra we determined the carrier concentrations responsible for the emissions and found that the fundamental band gap energy of InN is E-g=692+/-2 meV for an effective mass at the conduction-band minimum m(n0)=0.042m(0).

- We present a theoretical simulation of near-band-edge emission spectra of highly conducting n-InN assuming the model of 'free-to-bound' radiative recombination (FBRR) of degenerate electrons from the conduction band with nonequilibrium holes located in the valence band tails. We also study experimental photoluminescence (PL) spectra of highly conducting InN epitaxial layers grown by MBE and MOVPE with electron concentrations in the range (7.7 × 1017-6 × 1018) cm-3 and find that the energy positions and shape of the spectra depend on the impurity concentration. By modeling the experimental PL spectra of the InN layers we show that spectra can be nicely interpreted in the framework of the FBRR model with specific peculiarities for different doping levels. Analyzing simultaneously the shape and energy position of the InN emission spectra we determine the fundamental bandgap energy of InN to vary between Eg = 692 meV for effective mass mn0 = 0.042m0 and Eg =710 meV for mn0 = 0.1m0. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd.

Photoluminescence and electroluminescence characterization of InxGa1-x/InyGa1-yN multiple quantum well light emitting diodes

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We report on a study of radiative recombination in In0.11Ga0.89N/In.0.01Ga0.99N multiple quantum wells (MQWs). The QWs were nominally undoped, while the InGaN barriers were Si doped. The MQW part is situated in the depletion field of a pn-junction structure with electrical contacts, so that both photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) can be studied as a function of bias. The PL and EL spectra are distinctly different, in particular at low temperatures. The spectral properties and related differences in PL decay times reflect different recombination conditions in the MQW region for the individual QWs.

Ga-related defect in as-grown Zn-doped GaN : An optically detected magnetic resonance study
- 2000

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A detailed study of as-grown Zn-doped GaN employing optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) spectroscopy is presented. Besides the well-known ODMR spectra of an effective-mass-like donor and Zn acceptor, a positive ODMR signal of an S=1 / 2 paramagnetic center was observed when monitoring the dominating blue luminescence band peaking at 2.8 eV. The involvement of a single Ga nucleus in the defect center is revealed from the rather well-resolved hyperfine interactions involving the isotopes 71Ga (39.9%) and 69Ga (60.1%), both with nuclear spin I=3 / 2. The C3v symmetry, the hyperfine interaction and the defect formation suggest a Ga-related complex nature of this center.

Photoluminescence study of Si-doped GaN/Al0.07Ga0.93N multiple quantum wells with different dopant position

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The Si-doped GaN/Al0.07Ga0.93N multiple quantum wells (MQW) were investigated, using photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolved (PL) measurements. The influence of Si doping on the emission energy and recombination dynamics of the MWQs were also investigated, with different dopant position in the wells. It was observed that the redshifted emission of the MQWs was attributed to the self-energy shift of the electron states due to the correlated motion of the electrons exposed to the fluctuating potential of the donor ions. It was also observed that the PL decay time of the sample was ∼760 ps, at low temperature.
