Abstract
AbstractWe describe the growth of (Zn,Mn)(S,Se) epitaxial layers of high structural quality on (100) GaAs substrates. Double crystal x-ray diffraction (DCXRD) measurements indicate that quaternary epilayers nearly lattice-matched with GaAs are characterized by DCXRD curves with a foil width at half maximum in the range 30 – 60 arc seconds. Photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy is employed to map the variation of the energy gap of the quartenary alloys over a wide range of alloy compositions. Finally, temperature dependent PL is used to examine the viability of (Zn,Mn)(S,Se) alloys as confining layers for ZnSe and (Zn,Cd)Se quantum wells. While efficient exciton confinement is demonstrated through the observation of robust PL from such quantum wells up to high temperatures, the renormalization of the quartenary band gap by spin fluctuations leads to a rapid decrease in confinement with increase in temperature.
