摘要
The blue Mg induced 2.8 eV photoluminescence (PL) band in metalorganic chemical vapor deposition grown GaN has been studied in a large number of samples with varying Mg content. It emerges near a Mg concentration of 1 x 10(19) cm(-3) and at higher concentrations dominates the room temperature PL spectrum, The excitation power dependence of the 2.8 eV band provides convincing evidence for its donor-acceptor (D-A) pair recombination character. It is suggested that the acceptor A is isolated Rig,, while the spatially separated, deep donor (430 meV) D is attributed to a nearest-neighbor associate of a Mg-Ga acceptor with a nitrogen vacancy, formed by self-compensation.
