Abstract
Strong suppression of potential fluctuations in the band edges of GaNAs alloys due to postgrowth hydrogen treatment, which is accompanied by a reopening of the alloy band gap, is revealed from temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) and PL excitation measurements. The effect likely indicates preferential trapping of hydrogen near the lattice sites with the highest nitrogen content. A remarkable improvement in the radiative efficiency of the alloys at room temperature is also demonstrated and is ascribed to efficient hydrogen passivation of competing nonradiative centers.
