摘要: We demonstrate that synchrotron-based photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectroscopy is a versatile tool for determining valence band splittings of AlN and high aluminum content AlGaN. PLE results are independently confirmed by spectroscopic ellipsometry. The between the ordinary extraordinary absorption edges found to be −240 meV −170 Al0.94Ga0.06N, respectively. These values differ from crystal field energy due residual strain.
