Below bandgap photoluminescence of an AlN crystal: Co-existence of two different charging states of a defect center
The below bandgap optical transitions of an aluminum nitride (AlN) crystal grown on a tungsten (W) substrate by physical vapor transport (PVT) are investigated by below-bandgap-excited photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy and first-principles calculations. Oxygen (O) is the only impurity in the AlN-o...
