摘要
The optical properties of Al(x)Ga(1-x)N samples (x < 0.7) have been studied by photoluminescence (PL) and reflectivity in the 10-300 K temperature range. Various physical properties have been studied as a function of composition. such as Stokes shift, alloy broadening, exciton localization, and Huang-Rhys factor. Up to x approximate to 0.3, a band gap bowing factor of similar to0.9 eV accounts for the variation of PL and reflectivity energies. At higher compositions, luminescence energies deepen with regard to this behaviour. This is interpreted as a consequence of the Gamma(9)-Gamma(7) crossover of the valence band maxima. This is confirmed by the linear polarization of the luminescence studied under oblique observation.
