摘要: Rapid thermal annealing parameters for Ga(As,N) with 0.5% N are experimentally analyzed. The criteria taken into account the relative intensity of observed deep level photoluminescence, edge luminescence contributions, and decay time. For a 60 s treatment, we find an optimum temperature 850 °C clear tendency lower temperatures increasing contents. Luminescence times up to 400 ps recombination delocalized carrier pairs match well lifetime region specific direct III–V semiconductors provide evidence type-I band alignment in samples investigated.
