Abstract

We present data in this paper which demonstrate that the luminescence efficiency of p-type ZnSe : N grown by molecular beam epitaxy using a remote RF plasma source is a strong function of doping concentration and that in moderately to heavily doped material (corresponding to NA - ND ≥ 2 × 1017 cm-3) significant concentrations of non-radiative recombination centers strongly limit the luminescence efficiency of the material. Such data were obtained by performing real-time, in situ cathodoluminescence intensity measurements during epilayer growth for variously doped epilayers.
