摘要
Zn1-xMgxSe mixed crystals grown from the melt, with a value of x close to 0.19 have been characterized by photoluminescence (PL) and cathodoluminescence (CL) methods. We have observed two emission lines at 3.025 eV and at 3.075 eV at 40 K in PL as well as in CL spectra instead of the usually seen only one exciton line. Applying spectrally resolved cathodoluminescence enabled us to interpret the two near-band-edge emission lines observed in PL and CL spectra as due to radiative recombination of free excitons in 4H and 2H polytype structures coexisting in the same sample. These results also demonstrate the analytical capabilities of the cathodoluminescence. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
