Item Crystalline structure, surface morphology and optical properties of nanolamellar composites obtained by intercalation of InSe with Cd [Articol](2015) Untila, Dumitru; Caraman, Iuliana; Evtodiev, Igor; Canțer, Valeriu; Spalatu, Nicolae; Leontie, Liviu; Dmitroglo, Liliana; Luchian, EfimiaA material composed of InSe and CdSe crystallites was obtained by heat treatment at 753K of InSe single crystalline plates in Cd vapour for 3÷24 hours. The average diameters of CdSe and InSe crystallites determined from diffraction lines analysis are respectively equal to 20 nm and 22 nm. The photoluminescence spectra at 300K and 80K of composite decompose well into two Gaussian curves, one is in good correlation with the photoluminescence of CdSe crystals and the other is shifted to higher energies than the width of the band gap of CdSe crystals.Item Fotoluminescenţa straturilor nanolamelare de GaSe obţinute prin intercalarea cu Cd [Articol](2012) Dmitroglo, Liliana; Evtodiev, Igor; Caraman, Iuliana; Nedeff, Valentin; Dafinei, AdrianS-au analizat spectrele de emisie fotoluminescentă a lamelor monocristaline p-GaSe cu concentraţia golurilor3•1014 cm-3 şi a lamelor intercalate cu Cd în fază de vapori la temperatura 500 °C. Durata tratamentului termic a fost de 20 şi 24 ore. Spectrul de emisie al cristalelor de GaSe conţine liniile excitonilor direcţi localizaţi cu energia de legătură ~6 meV, prima repetare fononică a acestora (ħωf =20 meV) şi banda de emisie a excitonilor indirecţi cu emisia fononilor cu energia 15 meV. Spectrul de emisie a compozitelor obţinute prin intercalarea lamelor de GaSe cu Cd se obţine în rezultatul suprapunerii benzilor de emisie a compusului CdSe şi banda impuritară a monoseleniurii de galiu. Structura spectrului FL depinde de durata tratamentului termic. La majorarea timpului de tratament se amplifică subbanda corespunzătoare compusului CdSe.Item Preparation and characterization of Ga2O3 and GaN nanoparticles [Articol](SPIE, 2015) Rusu, Emil; Ursachi, Veaceslav; Raevschi, Simion; Vlazan, PaulinaIn this communication, we present results on preparation of GaN nanoparticles by conversion of Ga 2O 3 nanocrystals in a flow of NH 3 and H 2. The monoclinic Ga2O 3 nanoparticles have been prepared by hydrothermal method with gallium nitrate and sodium hydroxide as precursors. Ga2O 3 nanowires are produced with increasing the duration of the hydrothermal process up to 24 hours. The production of β-phase Ga2O 3 has been confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. According to XRD, Raman and FTIR spectra, wurtzite type GaN nanocrystals with an average size of 28.6 nm are obtained by nitridation of Ga2O3 nanoparticles. Doping of Ga2O 3 nanomaterial with Eu 3+ ions in the hydrothermal process is demonstrated, and the emission spectra of this Eu-doped nanomaterial are compared with those of Eu-doped nanoparticles prepared previously by solid state reactions.Item Photoelectric and photoluminescence properties of CdTe–GaTe composite [Articol](2016) Caraman, Iuliana; Spalatu, Nicolae; Evtodiev, Igor; Untila, Dumitru; Leontie, Liviu; Caraman, MihailA GaTe–CdTe composite was obtained by thermal treatment at 1020 K of GaTe single crystals in Cd vapor atmosphere. The composite photoluminescence, photoconductivity, and com- position are studied in this work. The photosensitivity and photoluminescence band structure are determined for both the primary crystals and the composite. The CdTe crystallites create, in the GaTe bandgap, recombination and trapping levels, which determine the structure of the photoluminescence spectra and the spectral range of composite photosensitivity. The photoluminescence spectrum of the composite at 80 K contains characteristic bands of both composite components, GaTe and CdTe. From the analysis of thermally stimulated luminescence curves, the energies of the electron trapping levels in the composite are determined.Item Optical properties of GaTe-ZnTe nanolamellae composite [Articol](2015) Spalatu, Nicolae; Evtodiev, Igor; Caraman, Iuliana; Evtodiev, Silvia; Rotaru, Irina; Caraman, Mihail; Untilă, DumitruA material composed of GaTe and ZnTe crystallites with average diameter of ~ 37 nm and 68 nm respectively was obtained by heat treatment at the temperature of 1000K and 1073K of GaTe plates in Zn vapour for 24 hours. The absorbance spectra of composite material obtained at 1073K and that calculated from diffuse reflection using the Kubelka-Munk formula contains the bands characteristic for light absorption in ZnTe and GaTe crystallites. The photoluminescence spectrum of composite material at the temperature of 80K is composed to the excitonic band in GaTe and impurity bands of ZnTe crystallites.Item Infrared photoluminescence of ZnSe:Gd crystals [Articol](Elsevier, 2015) Colibaba, Gleb; Goncearenco, Evghenii; Nedeoglo, Dmitrii; Nedeoglo, NataliaPhotoluminescent and optical properties of ZnSe crystals doped with Gd impurity are investigated in infrared (IR) spectral range. The influence of crystal growth temperature, impurity concentration, stoichiometric deviation and post-annealing cooling rate, concentration of Cr and Cu background impurities, temperature and excitation level on photoluminescent and optical properties of the samples is studied. Based on these investigations, the structure of complex IR photoluminescence (PL) bands is analyzed. Correlation between the component parts of the bands at 1 and 2 µm is found and possibility to control the IR PL spectra by enrichment of the samples with Zn or Se is discussed. Coincidence of the IR PL spectra structure is shown for the samples doped with Gd, Yb, and Cr impurities. The model that explains the formation of complexes based on rare-earth elements (REEs) and Cr and Cu background impurities fixed in the nodes of crystal lattice with tetrahedral symmetry, responsible for IR PL bands, is proposed.Item Photoluminescence study of ZnO nanostructures grown on silicon by MOCVD [Articol](Elsevier, 2012) Sirkeli, Vadim; Nedeoglo, DmitriiZnO nanostructures with a size ranging from 20 to 100 nm were successfully deposited on (1 0 0)-Si substrates at different temperatures (500–800 °C) using MOCVD. It could be confirmed that the size of ZnO nanostructures decreased with increasing growth temperature. From photoluminescence (PL) studies it was found, that intensive band-edge PL of ZnO nanostructures consists of emission lines with maxima at 368.6 nm, 370.1 nm, 373.7 nm, 383.9 nm, 391.7 nm, 400.7 nm and 412 nm. These lines can be dedicated to free excitons and impurity donor-bound excitons, where hydrogen acts as donor impurity with an activation energy of about 65 meV. A UV shift of the band-edge PL line with increasing growth temperature of ZnO nanostructures was observed as a result of the quantum confinement effect. The results suggest that an increase of growth temperature leads to increased band-edge PL intensity. Moreover, the ratio of band-edge PL intensity to green- (red-) band intensity also increases, indicating better crystalline quality of ZnO nanostructures with increasing growth temperature.Item Anisotropy of the Exciton Processes in GaSe Crystals with Low S and Te Concentrations [Articol](American Scientific Publishers, 2009) Evtodiev, IgorThe anisotropy of the excitonical processes in the GaSe crystals and GaSe with small quantities of GaS(GaSe0.99S0.01) crystals has been studied through the optical specters (SO) and through the photoluminescence (PL) from the perpendicular surface on the symmetry axis C6 (E⊥C polarization) and from the flat surface parallel with the C6axis (E∥C and E⊥C polarization). The edge of the fundamental band of the GaSe crystals as well as of the GaSe0.99S0.01 and GaSe0.99Te0.01 crystals is formed at T = 78 K of the direct excitons' band. The width of the free excitons' band is determined by the processes of interaction between the excitons and optical and acoustic phonons. Phonons with energy of 17 meV and 27 meV participate to the formation of the edge towards small energies of the excitonic band in the GaSe crystals. The average energy of the phonons that participate to the formation of the excitonic absorbtion band in the GaSe crystals with small concentrations of S and Te equals 17 meV. Due to the mechanism of interaction of the excitons and phonons the integral absorption coefficient for the studied crystals (polarized E⊥C) is in small increase once with the temperature whilst the integral absorption coefficient in the maximum of the direct excitons' band. The n = 1 state is in diminution. For example, for the GaSe0.99Te0.01 crystals, α increases from 2700 at T = 78 K to 2025 cm−1 at 220 K. The edge towards small energies of the free excitons' band in the GaSe crystals and GaSe crystals with small quantities of S and Te is in a great concordance with Toyozowa's theory. The constant of interaction between the free excitons with phonons with an average energy of 135 cm−1 equals 0.9. Using the spectral characteristic of the reflection coefficient from the surface parallel to the C6 axis, there has been determined the refraction index placed in the center of the excitons n = 1 which equals 2.62 for GaSe and 2.58 and 2.55 respectively for the GaSe0.99S0.01 and GaSe0.99Te0.01 crystals. The shifting of the reflection specters towards big energies like ∼10 meV in a E⊥C polarization comparing to E∥C is determined by the difference of the oscillators' strength in these polarizations. The PL at T = 78 K specters from the surface parallel with the C6 axis (polarized E∥C) confirm the difference between the forces of the excitons' oscillators in the E∥C and E⊥C polarization. The intensity of PL bands, at the (001) surface as well as at the (100) surface depends on the excitation intensity by a function of a I = Ln force towards the emission bands of the direct and indirect free excitons the force factor is overlinear, and for the impurity nature bands it represents ∼0.5. The parameters that determine the width of the bands of excitonic PL is determined, considering the strong concentration of the structural faults at the (100) surface of the GaSe and GaSe0.99Te0.01 and GaSe0.99S0.01 GaSe crystals. Out of the spectral analysis I(L) the nature of the impurity bands has been determined, and from the PL specter structure there has been determined the energy of the accepting level which equals 93 meV from the maximum of the valence band of the GaSe crystals. Out of the analysis of the PL specter in a E∥C and E⊥C polarization (the (100) surface) it was stated that the process of emissional annihilation of the indirect excitons in the E∥C polarization takes place once with the emission of the phonons of a 38 meV energy whilst at the E⊥C polarization there are emitted phonons with an energy of 17 meV. GaSe with small concentrations of GaS and GaTe leads to the forming of a considerable concentration of localizing centers of the direct excitons and at the same time to the shifting towards small and big energies of the excitonic emission band (state n = 1) comparing to the GaSe crystals with a stoikiometric composition.Item Radiative recombination mechanisms in CdTe thin films deposited by elemental vapor transport [Articol](Elsevier, 2015) Collins, Shamara; Vatavu, Sergiu; Evani, Vamsi; Khan, Md; Bakhsh, Sara; Palekis, Vasilios; Rotaru, Corneliu; Ferekides, ChrisA photoluminesence (PL) study of the radiative recombination mechanisms for CdTe films deposited under different Cd and Te overpressure by elemental vapor transport is presented. The experiment and analysis have been carried out in the temperature range of 12–130 K. The intensity of the PL laser excitation beam was varied by two orders of magnitude. It has been established that the bands in the 1.47–1.50 eV are determined by transitions involving shallow D and A states and the 1.36x–1.37x eV band is due to band to level transitions. Deep transitions at 1.042 eV and 1.129 eV are due to radiative transitions to levels determined by CdTe native defects.Item Shallow donor states induced in ZnNe :au single crystals by lattice deformation [Articol](American Institute of Physics, 2008) Nedeoglo, Natalia; Nedeoglo, Dmitrii; Laiho, R.; Sirkeli, Vadim; Lähderanta, E.Photoluminescence (PL) spectra are investigated in n-ZnSe single crystals at different temperatures from 4.4 to 300 K immediately after doping with Au from melt of Se+Au or Zn+Au and after storage of the doped samples for 4 years in the dark under normal room conditions. Due to the formation of Aui interstitial donors in the n-ZnSe:Se:Au crystals with time, the origin of the near band edge PL changes from acceptor-bound to donor-bound excitons. Taking into account the results of PL characterization, we proposed that the Aui donors are generated by displacement of Au ions from regular lattice sites to interstitial sites with the help of lattice deformation forces. Transport measurements show dramatic increase in the electrical conductivity and the free electron concentration after storage of the n-ZnSe:Zn:Au crystals, thus confirming the proposed model.
