摘要: We report electroreflectance spectra for a series of GaAs{sub 1{minus}x} N{sub x} samples with x{lt}0.03 . For all samples, the fundamental band gap transition (E{sub 0}) and from spin-orbit split-off valence 0}+{Delta}{sub are observed. x{ge}0.008 , an additional +}) is With increasing nitrogen content, increase in E{sub +} linear in, nearly equal to, reduction indicative nitrogen-induced level repulsion. The directly observed may arise either nitrogen-related resonant or disorder-activated indirect transition. {copyright} {ital 1999} American Physical Society}
