摘要: The effect of impurities and defects on the optical properties AlN was investigated. High-quality single crystals more than 20mm2 size were examined. Different crucible materials growth procedures applied to bulk by physical vapor transport method vary defect impurity concentrations. crystalline orientation investigated Raman spectroscopy. Glow discharge mass spectrometry used determine trace concentration incorporated such as oxygen carbon. photoluminescence emission absorption revealed bands around 3.5 4.3eV at room temperature. Absorption edges ranging between 4.1 5.95eV observed. Since no straight correlation obtained, a major contribution or oxygen-related ruled out generate observed in Ultraviolet spectral range. carbon-related intrinsic defec...
