摘要: Knowledge from lanthanide spectroscopy on wide band gap (6–10?eV) inorganic compounds is used to understand and predict optical electronic properties of the lanthanides in III-V semiconductor GaN. For first time location 4fn ground state energy each divalent trivalent ion relative valence conduction bands GaN presented. The authors will demonstrate that quantum efficiency luminescence Pr3+, Eu3+, Tb3+, Yb3+ depends levels. Level also controls electron acceptor donor ions.
