摘要
The luminescence of ZnSe grown by metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy and doped by a DC nitrogen plasma is investigated. With increasing N-2 flux the donor-acceptor pair (DAP) band continuously develops into a structureless band peaking at 2.62 eV for highest doping levels. This broad band evolves back into a structured DAP band peaking at 2.698 eV with increasing excitation density. At high N concentrations and at large degree of compensation potential fluctuations become important for the spatially indirect DAP recombination. These fluctuations can easily be screened by optically excited carriers making the experimental conditions decisive for luminescence spectra of strongly doped ZnSe:N samples.
