摘要：

GaxIn1-xP alloys grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) are known to exhibit spontaneous long-range ordering that results in a modification of the alloy electronic band structure. Using time resolved and time integrated photoluminescence studies at 9 K, we demonstrate that the change in alloy ordering in GaxIn1-xP alloys can transform the conduction to valence band optical transition from direct to indirect for a given Ga concentration. This finding may enable sequential growth of alternate layers of high bandgap direct and indirect semiconductor alloys with similar lattice constants, opening various possibilities for device applications.
