Origin and elimination of spurious solutions of the eight-band k center dot p theory

The origin of spurious solutions in the eight-band envelope function model is examined and it is shown that spurious solutions arise from the additional spurious degeneracies caused by the unphysical bowing of the conduction bands calculated within the eight-band k center dot p model. We propose two approaches to eliminate these spurious solutions. Using the first approach, the wave vector cutoff method, we demonstrate the origin and elimination of spurious solutions in a transparent way without modifying the original Hamiltonian. Through the second approach, we introduce some freedom in modifying the Hamiltonian. The comparison between the results from the various modified Hamiltonians suggests that the wave vector cutoff method can give accurate enough description to the final results.

Color center conversion by femtosecond pulse laser irradiation in LiF : F-2 crystals

We report the observation of intense spontaneous emission of green light from LiF:F-2:F-3(+) centers in active channel waveguides generated in lithium fluoride crystals by near-infrared femtosecond laser radiation. While irradiating the crystal at room temperature with 405 nm light from a laser diode, yellow and green emission was seen by the naked eye. Stripe waveguides were fabricated by translating the crystal along the irradiated laser pulse, and their guiding properties and fluorescence spectra at 540 nm demonstrated. This single-step process inducing a waveguide structure offers a good prospect for the development of a waveguide laser in bulk LiF crystals.

Sulfur forming an isoelectronic center in zinc telluride thin films

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.
