摘要
Epitaxial films of LaCuOS1-xSex (x=0-1) solid solution were grown on MgO (001) substrates and their electrical and optical properties were examined. Sharp emission due to room-temperature exciton with binding energy of similar to50 meV is observed for all x values. Hall mobility becomes large with an increase in the Se content and it reaches 8.0 cm(2)V(-1)s(-1) in LaCuOSe, a comparable value to that of p-type GaN:Mg. Doping of Mg2+ ions at La3+ sites enhances a hole concentration up to 2.2x10(20) cm(-3), while maintaining the Hall mobility as large as 4.0 cm(2)V(-1)s(-1). Consequently, a degenerate p-type electrical conduction with a conductivity of 140 S cm(-1) was achieved. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
