Abstract
The photoluminescence of homoepitaxial and heteroepitaxial GaN layers is reported. It is shown that the coupling between LO phonons and neutral acceptor bound excitons is much stronger than the coupling between LO phonons and neutral donor bound excitons. In undoped homoepitaxial layer, in spite of that the no-phonon emission due to donor bound excitons is one order of magnitude stronger than the acceptor bound excitons emission, the predominant structure in the LO phonon replica of the excitonic spectrum is related to optical transitions involving acceptor bound excitons. Temperature studies showed that at higher temperature the LO phonon replica is related to free excitons.
