Resumo:
ZnTe1-xSx epitaxial layers grown on GaAs by molecular-beam epitaxy were studied by photoluminescence (PL) as a function of temperatures, excitation powers, and hydrostatic pressures. A sulfur-related emission peak, labeled as P-2, is identified as a deep-level emission by hydrostatic-pressure PL measurement. This indicates that sulfur atoms form isoelectronic centers in a ZnTe matrix. The results qualitatively agree with the theoretical prediction and show experimental evidence of isoelectronic S in ZnTe. A model is proposed to explain the emission mechanisms in the ZnTe1-xSx system with small x values.

The transitions of E0 ,E0 +A0, and E+ in dilute GaAs(1-x) Nx alloys with x = 0.10% ,0.22% ,0.36% ,and 0.62% are observed by micro-photoluminescence. Resonant Raman scattering results further confirm that they are from the intrinsic emissions in the studied dilute GaAsN alloys rather than some localized exciton emissions in the GaAsN alloys. The results show that the nitrogen-induced E E+ and E0 + A0 transitions in GaAsN alloys intersect at a nitrogen content of about 0.16%. It is demonstrated that a small amount of isoelectronic doping combined with micro-photoluminescence allows direct observation of above band gap transitions that are not usually accessible in photoluminescence.
Resumo:
Electron transport in heavily-doped GaAs/AlAs superlattices in parallel electric and magnetic fields is reported. The current-voltage (I-V) characteristic exhibited the feature of negative differential velocity (NDV) and high electric field domain effect at different biases. Under strong magnetic fields, sequential resonant tunnelling through Landau levels in the negative differential velocity regime is observed, which are manifested as oscillations in the conductance-voltage characteristics.
