Structural and photoluminescent properties of ternary Zn1-xCdxO crystal films grown on Si(111) substrates

The ternary Zn1-xCdxO (0less than or equal toxless than or equal to0.6) alloying films with highly c-axis orientation have been deposited on Si(111) substrates by direct current reactive magnetron sputtering method. X-ray diffraction measurement indicates that the wurtzite-type structure of ZnO can be stabilized up to nominal Cd content x similar to 0.6 without cubic CdO phase separation. The lattice parameter c of Zn1-xCdxO increases almost linearly from 5.229 Angstrom (x = 0) to 5.247 Angstrom (x = 0.6), indicating that Cd substitution takes place on the Zn lattice sites. The photoluminescence spectra of the Zn1-xCdxO thin films measured at 12 K display a substantial red shift (similar to0.3 eV) in the near-band-edges (NBEs) emission of ZnO: from 3.39 eV of ZnO to 3.00 eV of Zn0.4Cd0.6O. The direct modulation of band gap caused by Zn/Cd substitution is responsible for the red shift effect in NBE emission of ZnO. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

GaN1-xPx ternary alloys with high P composition grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition

GaN1-xPx ternary alloys with high P compositions were deposited on sapphire substrates by means of metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. Depth profiles of the elements indicate that the maximum P/N composition ratio is about 17% and a uniform distribution of the P atoms in the alloys is achieved. 2theta/omega XRD spectra demonstrate that the (0002) peak of the GaN1-xPx alloys shifts to smaller angle with increasing P composition. From the photoluminescence (PL) spectra, the red shifts to the bandedge emission of GaN are determined to be 73, 78, 100 and 87 meV for the GaN1-xPx alloys with the P/N composition ratios of 3%, 11%, 15% and 17%, respectively. No PL peak related to GaP is observed, indicating that the phase separation between GaN and GaP is well suppressed in our GaN1-xPx samples. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Thermal redistribution of localized excitons and its effect on the luminescence band in InGaN ternary alloys

Temperature-dependent photoluminescence measurements have been carried out in zinc-blende InGaN epilayers grown on GaAs substrates by metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy. An anomalous temperature dependence of the peak position of the luminescence band was observed. Considering thermal activation and the transfer of excitons localized at different potential minima, we employed a model to explain the observed behavior. A good agreement between the theory and the experiment is achieved. At high temperatures, the model can be approximated to the band-tail-state emission model proposed by Eliseev et al. [Appl. Phys. Lett. 71, 569 (1997)]. (C) 2001 American Institute of Physics.

Relaxation of carriers in terbium-doped ZnO nanoparticles

Terbium ions were successfully incorporated in nano-sized zinc oxide particles with a doping concentration up to 3% by using a wet chemical route. Four narrow emission peaks of Tb3+ ions and a broad emission band of the surface states on ZnO nano-hosts were observed for all Tb-doped nanoparticles. Relaxation of carriers from excited states of ZnO hosts to rare earth (RE) dopants is disclosed by the fact that the emission intensity of Tb3+ centers increases with increased Tb content at the expense of the emission from surface defect states in ZnO matrix.

Optical properties of self-assembled ternary In(GA/Al)As quantum dots on (100) and (N 1 1)B InP substrates

In this paper, we investigated the self-assembled quantum dots formed on (100) and (N11)B (N = 2, 3, 4, 5) InP substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Two kinds of ternary QDs (In0.9Ga0.1As and In0.9Al0.1As QDs) are grown on the above substrates; Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photoluminescence (PL) results confirm QDs formation for all samples. The PL spectra reveal obvious differences in integral luminescence, peak position, full-width at half-maximum and peak shape between different oriented surfaces. Highest PL integral intensity is observed from QDs on (411)B surfaces, which shows a potential for improving the optical properties of QDs by using high-index surface. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.

ELECTRONIC AND MAGNETIC-STRUCTURE OF THE TERNARY COMPOUND ND2FE17N

The electronic and the magnetic structure of the Nd2Fe17N1 phase in the family of Nd-Fe-N ternary compounds have been calculated using the first-principles, spin-polarized orthogonalized linear-combination-of-atomic-orbitals method. Results are presented in the form of site-decomposed and spin-projected partial density of states. The occupation sites of the three N atoms are determined by an average radial distribution of all possible N site configurations. Both cases of N occupying the 3b and the 18g sites are studied. The results indicate that the 6c Fe sites have the maximum and the 18h Fe sites have the minimum local moments. This is in good agreement with experiment. It is concluded that the influence on the local moment due to lattice expansion is less important compared to that due to interatomic interaction between the N atom and its neighbors. The results also show the important role of N atoms in raising the Curie temperature of this compound.

CALCULATED ELECTRONIC AND MAGNETIC-STRUCTURES OF THE NEW TERNARY RARE-EARTH IRON NITRIDE ND2FE17N3

The electronic and magnetic structures of Nd2Fe17 and Nd2Fe17N3 have been calculated using the first-principle, spin-polarized orthogonalized linear combination of atomic orbitals method. Comparative studies of the two materials reveal important effects of the nitrogen atoms (at 9e site) on the electronic and magnetic structures. Results are presented for the total density of states, site-projected partial density of states and the spin magnetic moments on four nonequivalent Fe sites. The highest magnetic moments are found to be located on the 6c site for Nd2Fe17 and on the 9d site for Nd2Fe17N3, in agreement with the neutron and Mossbauer experiments. The variation trends of the magnetic moments on different Fe sites are discussed in terms of the separation between Fe and N atoms. Compared with Nd2Fe17, an increase in the exchange splitting of the Fe d band is found in Nd2Fe17N3, which accounts for its higher Curie temperature as observed in experiments. The calculated results show that the nitrogen atoms are charge acceptors in these compounds.

SPECTROSCOPIC INVESTIGATION OF HYDROGEN-DOPANT COMPLEXES IN BULK P-TYPE AND IMPLANTED N-TYPE CRYSTALLINE SILICON

Infrared absorption experiments have been performed on hydrogenated and deuterated bulk boron- and aluminum-doped-Si and implanted P, As, and Sb donors in silicon. A first evidence of complex formation in bulk p-type Si is obtained and the spectra confirm the anomalous 3.3-cm-1 deuterium frequency shift with respect to boron isotopes. The ratio of the D-B-11 and D-B-10 peak areas is found to be the same as that of the two boron isotopes natural abundance. In donor-implanted silicon, a quantitative analysis of the obtained data has allowed a rough estimate of the passivating rate due to diffusing deuterium. While the frequencies of the various vibrational lines are found to be in agreement with those reported in the literature, the data on the broad line at 1660 cm-1 (H) or 1220 cm-1 (D) seem to suggest an assignment of this peak to a complex in the bulk involving some type of defect due to the implantation process.
