Photoluminescence characterization of cubic CdS epilayers

Cubic CdS epilayers were grown on (100) GaAs substrates by hot‐wall epitaxy and their photoluminescence (PL) characteristics were studied. A heavy hole free exciton peak was observed even at room temperature and a light hole free exciton peak was observed at 30–100 K. The temperature dependence of t...

Zusammenfassung:Cubic CdS epilayers were grown on (100) GaAs substrates by hot‐wall epitaxy and their photoluminescence (PL) characteristics were studied. A heavy hole free exciton peak was observed even at room temperature and a light hole free exciton peak was observed at 30–100 K. The temperature dependence of the free excitonic emission intensity was demonstrated using a two‐step quenching mechanism. The excitation power dependence showed that the PL peak at 2.367 eV is due to the free‐to‐bound transition. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
