    Notes: Persistent photoconductivity (PPC) mechanisms, as well as the similarities and the differences of PPC properties in II-VI and III-V semiconductor alloys have been investigated. The potential applications based on PPC phenomenon in these two kinds of materials are discussed. We have observed that PPC induced in a II-VI mixed crystal by visible (above band gap) illumination can be quenched by long wavelength infrared radiation even at room temperature, which further supports our interpretation that PPC in II-VI mixed crystals is caused by random local potential fluctuations induced by compositional fluctuations. A newly developed infrared detector based on the PPC infrared quenching property of II-VI semiconductor alloys is also reported.

    Notes: The dynamic processes of the free excitonic transitions in GaN grown by metal-organic chemical-vapor deposition (MOCVD) have been studied. The recombination lifetimes of the A and B excitons have been measured at different temperatures and excitation intensities, from which radiative recombination lifetimes of about 0.35 and 0.3 ns for the A and B excitons, respectively, have been obtained. An increase in excitation power has resulted in a drastic enhancement in the radiative decay rate as well as in the exciton photoluminescence quantum yield, suggesting the excitonic transitions may provide gain for laser actions in GaN. The high quality as well as high purity of the investigated MOCVD sample has been demonstrated by the observations of (1) the free A- and B-excitonic transitions, (2) excited states of the free excitons, (3) narrow free excitonic emission linewidths (1.7 meV at 10 K), (4) low electron concentration, and (5) high electron mobilities (∼600 cm2/V s). © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Continuous-wave and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopies have been employed to study the band-edge transitions in GaN epitaxial layers grown by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy. In addition to the neutral-donor-bound exciton transition (the I2 line), a transition line at about 83 meV below the band gap has been observed in an epitaxial layer grown under a lower plasma power or growth rate. This emission line has been assigned to the band-to-impurity transition resulting from the recombination between electrons bound to shallow donors and free holes D0, h+). Systematic studies of these optical transitions have been carried out under different temperatures and excitation intensities. The temperature variation of the spectral peak position of the D0, h+) emission line differs from the band gap variation with temperature, but is consistent with an existing theory for D0, h+) transitions. The dynamic processes of the D0, h+) transition have also been investigated and subnanosecond recombination lifetimes have been observed. The emission energy and the temperature dependencies of the recombination lifetime have been measured. These results have provided solid evidence for the assignment of the D0, h+) transition and show that the motions of the free holes which participated in this transition are more or less restricted in the plane of the epitaxial layer at temperatures below 140 K and that the thermal quenching of the emission intensity of this transition is due to the dissociation of neutral donors. Our results show that time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy can be of immense value in understanding the optical recombination dynamics in GaN. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A technique for growing ultrathin silicon oxides of superior quality at low temperatures is indispensable for future submicron device applications. Fundamental characteristics such as the oxide breakdown fields, oxide charges, and interface-state densities of various ultrathin silicon oxides (≤8 nm) grown by microwave plasma afterglow oxidation at low temperatures (400 and 600 °C) were investigated. Fluorination (HF soaking) and low-temperature N2O plasma annealing were employed to improve the properties of the oxides. The breakdown fields of the as-grown silicon oxides were enhanced and the interface-state densities were reduced. The effect of N2O annealing time on the interface-state density was also investigated. A longer annealing time ((approximately-greater-than)1 h) was required to reduce the interface-state density. The effective oxide charge density of 600 °C as-grown oxide was as low as 6×1010 cm−2. Additionally, the breakdown field of the thin silicon oxide grown at 600 °C with 15 min N2O plasma annealing was 12 MV/cm.

    Notes: Electrical properties of Mg-doped p-type GaN grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition have been investigated by Hall effect and conductivity measurements. Metastability and persistent photoconductivity effects have been observed in GaN. It was found that at low temperatures, it takes several hours for the free hole concentration to reach its equilibrium value in the dark as well as in the photoexcited state, implying a bistable nature of impurities in p-type GaN. Temperature dependence of these behaviors have been studied, from which the energy barrier for free hole capture by ionized impurities as well as between the metastable and the stable states of neutral impurities have been obtained. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Persistent photoconductivity (PPC) effect associated with a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in an AlGaN/GaN heterojunction device has been observed. As a consequence, the device was observed to be sensitive to light and the sensitivity was associated with a permanent photoinduced increase in the 2DEG carrier mobility and density. By formulating the PPC buildup and decay kinetics, we attributed the observed increase in the 2DEG carrier density and mobility to the photoionization of deep level impurities (DX like centers) in the AlGaN barrier material. In the PPC state, we were able to continuously vary the 2DEG carrier density in a single sample through photoexcitation and it has been found that the 2DEG carrier mobility increases almost linearly with the carrier density in the 2DEG channel. At 10 K, an electron mobility of 5800 cm2/V⋅s has been obtained in a PPC state. Implications of these observations on the device applications based on AlGaN/GaN heterojunctions have also been discussed. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Pumping of the Ne-like Ge x-ray laser with two 100 ps duration pulses (a prepulse and main pulse) is investigated using a fluid and atomic physics code coupled to a 3D ray tracing postprocessor code. The modeling predicts the optimum ratio of the irradiance of the two pulses for the maximum x-ray laser output resulting from the balance between the relative lower electron density gradients and wider gain region which is produced with a larger prepulse and the higher peak gain coefficients produced with a small prepulse. With a longer pulse interval between prepulse and main pulse, a relatively lower optimum pulse ratio is found. The threshold irradiance of the main driving pulse with a prepulse required to make an order of magnitude enhancement of laser output compared to irradiation without a prepulse is also found at 3–4×1013 W/cm2 for Ne-like Ge. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The electron-energy levels in the GaAs-Ga1−xAlxAs superlattice with finite thicknesses of interfaces between the layers, instead of sharp discontinuities across the interfaces, have been investigated. This model is more realistic for superlattices. A linearly increased (decreased) potential across the interfaces was assumed and a dispersion relation was derived to the second order of the thickness of the interface. The miniband structure, the shifting of the ground-state energy of the electron, and the effective-energy gap as functions of this thickness are presented.

    Notes: For a real superlattice, fluctuations are always presented in the period lengths. The band structure of semiconductor superlattices under the effect of this periodic disorder has been investigated in this paper. The zone center and zone edge of the first subband of electrons and holes and the effective energy gap as functions of this fluctuation have been calculated. We discuss the dependence of the band offset on this fluctuation. Our calculated results can be used to explain some of the experimental observations.
