摘要: Thermal annealing effects of GaAs 0.916 Sb 0.084 and 0.906 0.075 N 0.019 films grown on substrates by gas-source molecular beam epitaxy have been characterized piezoreflectance (PzR) photoreflectance (PR). By a comparison relative intensity PzR PR spectra, the identification conduction to heavy-hole (HH) band light-hole (LH) transitions originated from strained induced valence splitting achieved. The near edge transition energies are blue-shifted, HH LH bands is reduced after thermal treatment. found be more pronounced than that . temperature dependences analyzed using Varshni Bose―Einstein expressions in range 15 K 300 K. parameters describe variations evaluated discussed.
