    Notes: We describe an approach to assess the quality of III-nitride thin films using depth-resolved cathodoluminescence (CL) microanalysis. In this procedure, the depth-resolved peak shift due to self-absorption of the near-edge CL emission is calculated using Monte Carlo simulation techniques and compared with measured peak shift values. A discrepancy between the experimental and modeled data indicates the presence of an exciton peak shift due to strain, near-edge defects, and alloy fluctuation. Depth-resolved peak shift analysis of the near-edge CL from an undoped 700 nm thick Al0.057Ga0.943N film grown on a (0001) Al2O3 substrate is presented to demonstrate the utility of the method. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The irradiation of natural and ultrapure synthetic crystalline quartz by a stationary electron beam produces surface outgrowths, which have been analyzed using scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, cathodoluminescence spectroscopy, and microscopy. Oxygen enrichment of the quartz surface occurs due to electromigration resulting from the trapped charge induced electric field. It is proposed that the accumulated oxygen is incorporated into the quartz surface structure as peroxy linkages, the formation of which results in the permanent volume increase observed as amorphous outgrowths on crystalline quartz. A cathodoluminescence emission at 2.3 eV localized on the outgrowths, is attributed to an intrinsic process. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We present a method for imaging depletion layers using the gaseous secondary electron detector (GSED) employed in environmental scanning electron microscopes. GSED images of a p-n junction were obtained from a Si P+PN power diode. Behavior of the junction contrast as a function of imaging conditions is unrelated to reported GSED contrast formation mechanisms [ A. L. Fletcher, B. L. Thiel, and A. M. Donald, J. Phys. D 30, 2249 (1997)]. Optimum imaging conditions are presented, and the contrast behavior is interpreted in terms of a previously unreported induced current component in GSED images. The presented technique is unique as it will enable imaging of depletion layers in uncoated semiconductor/oxide devices in controlled gaseous environments at elevated specimen temperatures. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We present the results of a depth-resolved cathodoluminescence (CL) and transmission electron microscopy study of autodoped GaN grown on sapphire. Depth-resolved CL analysis can be used for depth profiling of the yellow luminescence (YL) center concentration which was found to increase with depth. The results are consistent with the (ON–VGa)2− complex model of YL centers [J. Neugebauer and C. G. Van de Walle, Appl. Phys. Lett. 69, 503 (1996) and T. Mattila and R. M. Nieminen, Phys. Rev. B 55, 9571 (1996)]. Depth profiling of the near-edge emission in GaN layers thicker than ∼0.5 μm is not possible due to strong self-absorption. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Trace levels of Cr impurities in epitaxial GaN grown on sapphire substrates were investigated using cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy. CL emissions characteristic of Cr in an octahedral crystal field were observed from β−Ga2O3 overlayers produced on GaN by post-growth thermal annealing in dry O2. Cr luminescence was also observed from the sapphire substrates, a likely source of the Cr contaminant. The presented results illustrate the use of β−Ga2O3 overlayers as high sensitivity indicators of the presence of Cr in GaN. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Effects of anodic oxide induced intermixing on the structural and optical properties of stacked GaAs quantum wire (QWR) structures grown on a sawtooth-type nonplanar GaAs substrate are investigated. Cross-sectional transmission electron microscope (XTEM) observation, temperature dependent photoluminescence (PL) and cathodoluminescence (CL) imaging were used. Intermixing was achieved by pulsed anodic oxidation of the GaAs cap layer and subsequent rapid thermal annealing, was verified by XTEM analysis. A significant enhancement of QWR PL is observed accompanied by a notable blueshift of the sidewall quantum well (SQWL) PL due to the intermixing. Furthermore, an extended necking region is observed after the intermixing by spatially resolved CL. The temperature dependence of the PL intensities of both SQWL and QWR show maxima at approximately T∼110 K indicating the role of the extended necking region in feeding carriers to SQWL and QWR. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The irradiation of crystalline (α-SiO2) and amorphous (a-SiO2) silicon dioxide with a stationary electron beam produces characteristic changes in the surface topography. The development of these changes has been investigated using cathodoluminescence spectroscopy and microscopy, scanning probe (atomic force) microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Electron irradiation produces a permanent volume increase on (crystalline) α-SiO2, while in (amorphous) a-SiO2 an initial small volume increase is followed by volume loss as irradiation continues. The observed changes are consistent with electromigration of oxygen under the influence of the electric field induced by charge trapping at preexisting or irradiation-induced defects. Oxygen enrichment may produce expansion of the surface region due to the formation of peroxy linkage defects. In a-SiO2, charges trapped by defects at grain boundaries produce enhanced electric fields which may result in volume reduction at the surface, when critical field strengths are exceeded. The observed volume reductions may be attributed to electron stimulated desorption of constituents, in particular oxygen mass loss, and densification of the surface region associated with the formation of oxygen-deficient defect centers. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We describe hybrid lasers combining a semiconductor gain section and fiber cavity with integrated chirped Bragg reflector. These devices have produced output powers of 27.5 mW in a narrow linewidth (400 KHz) stable single longitudinal mode. The use of a chirped reflector to stabilize the single mode output, and correct grating orientation are described. The laser output has a side-mode suppression ratio of over 55 dB at 27.5 mW output, and relative intensity noise (RIN) below 160 dB/Hz.

    Notes: Abstract The presence and distribution of the amorphous phase is a key factor in the performance and bone-bonding behavior of plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite coatings. Microanalysis of coatings was conducted with microprobe Raman and scanning cathodoluminescence microscopy. It was confirmed that the darker regions in polished cross sections represent the amorphous phase. The more intense cathodoluminescence emission from the amorphous phase during electron-beam irradiation compared with the crystalline phase was used to detect the two structurally different areas within the sample. By selecting the peak of the emission at 450 nm it was possible to raster the surface with the electron beam and produce a map of the amorphous phase in polished sections, a fracture surface and an as-sprayed surface of the plasma-sprayed coating. Cathodoluminescence microscopy, based on the different light emission from the amorphous phase and hydroxyapatite, is a useful tool for identifying and mapping of the amorphous-phase constituent in plasma-sprayed coatings. © 1998 Kluwer Academic Publishers

    Notes: Abstract  Natural amorphous hydrated silicon dioxide (opal) has been investigated for the first time using Cathodoluminescence microanalysis in a Scanning Electron Microscope. Defect centers have been identified and imaged with high sensitivity and high spatial resolution. Intrinsic defects identified include the non bridging oxygen hole center (NBOHC) and the oxygen deficient centers (ODC). Impurities are strongly correlated with the grain structure of the precious opal and a higher than average concentration of impurity defects are observed at grain boundaries and cracks. Impurity associated defect centers include the NBOHC with −OH precursor, and the charge compensated substitutional Al, Ti, and Fe centers. Cathodoluminescence microanalysis provides important information about the defect structure and long term stability of precious opal.
