摘要: The optical properties of GaAsBi layers grown by atmospheric pressure metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy on p-type GaAs substrates and annealed at different temperatures are investigated photoreflectance photoluminescence spectroscopies. Photoreflectance spectra show no significant shift in the band gap energy GaAs0.965Bi0.035 with annealing temperature except 600 °C for which reaches a minimum value corresponding to red 60 meV. low broad centered ~1.36 eV. dependence 1.36 eV emission addition increasing intensity this bismuth flow suggests that it is originated from Bi clusters or complex defects probably located surface/interface epilayer.
