    Luminescent properties of Sb-doped ZnSe single crystals [Articol]
    (2019) Sushkevich, Konstantin; Goncearenco, Evghenii; Nedeoglo, Natalia; Nedeoglo, Dmitrii
    Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of ZnSe:0.1at%Sb single crystals are studied between 90 and 300 K. The samples are grown by the chemical vapor transport (CVT) method with iodine as a transport agent and doped with Sb impurity during the growth. A yellow PL band with a maximum at 2.16 eV (575 nm) at room temperature is observed for the first time. A model of a (SbSeISe) acceptor center with the energy level located at 0.52 eV above the valence band edge is proposed, and the mechanism of the formation of this yellow PL band under direct and indirect excitation is discussed.

    The structure of high-temperature blue luminescence centers in zinc selenide and mechanisms of this luminescence [Articol]
    (Springer Nature, 1998) Ivanova, G.N.; Kasiyan, V.A.; Nedeoglo, Dmitrii; Nedeoglo, Natalia; Simashkevich, A.V.
    The characteristic features of temperature quenching of the intensity of the edge luminescence bands of n-ZnSe crystals annealed in different media (vacuum, Zn, Se) are investigated a wide temperature range. A change in the mechanisms of high-temperature exciton luminescence in the short-wavelength region of the spectrum (443 nm) with increase in temperature of the crystal is observed. It is shown that the nature of temperature quenching of the long-wavelength edge luminescence band (458 nm) is evidence of dissociation of associative luminescence centers with increase in the sample temperature.

    Magnetic and luminescent properties of nickel-doped ZnSe crystals [Articol]
    (Elsevier, 2015) Sirkeli, Vadim; Radevici, Ivan; Sushkevich, Konstantin; Nedeoglo, Natalia; Nedeoglo, Dmitrii
    Magnetic and photoluminescent properties of nickel-doped ZnSe crystals with impurity concentrations varied by changing the Ni amount in the source material from 0.001 to 0.50 at.% are studied in 5–300 K temperature range. Investigation of magnetic properties shows that Ni impurity in ZnSe forms isolated paramagnetic centers and probability of Ni–Ni pairs formation is negligible due to low Ni concentration in the samples. The contribution of Ni impurity to edge emission and its influence on infra-red emission are discussed. It is found that complete concentration quenching of luminescence within all studied spectral range is observed starting with Ni concentration of 0.50 at.%.

    A comparative analysis of infrared luminescence spectra of ZnSe:Yb, ZnSe:Gd, and ZnSe:Cr crystals [Articol]
    (Wiley, 2014) Colibaba, Gleb; Goncearenco, Evghenii; Nedeoglo, Dmitrii; Nedeoglo, Natalia
    Photoluminescent and optical properties of ZnSe crystals doped with Yb and Gd rare-earth elements (REEs) and Cr impurity are investigated in infrared (IR) spectral range. The influence of stoichiometric deviation on photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the crystals is investigated and the structure of complex IR PL bands is analysed. The good coincidence between the IR PL spectra of the samples doped with Yb, Gd, and Cr is shown. Correlation between the component parts of the bands at 1 and 2 µm is found and possibility to control the composition of IR PL spectra by enrichment of the samples with Zn or Se is discussed. The model that explains the formation of associative centres based on the REEs and background Cu impurity fixed in the nodes of crystal lattice with tetrahedral symmetry, which are responsible for IR PL bands, is proposed.

    Infrared photoluminescence of ZnSe:Gd crystals [Articol]
    (Elsevier, 2015) Colibaba, Gleb; Goncearenco, Evghenii; Nedeoglo, Dmitrii; Nedeoglo, Natalia
    Photoluminescent 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.

    Interaction of intrinsic defects with impurities in Al doped ZnSe single crystals [Articol]
    (American Institute of Physics, 2007) Ivanova, G.N.; Nedeoglo, Dmitrii; Nedeoglo, Natalia; Sirkeli, Vadim
    We report on the results of a complex study of electrical (77−300 K) and luminescence (10−300 K) properties of 𝑛-ZnSe single crystals annealed in a Zn melt containing Al impurity at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 80 at. %. It was established that Al atoms form donor centers only at a low impurity concentration (≤0.5 at. %). The increase of the amount of Al atoms in the crystal results in the formation of (VZnAlZn) associative acceptor centers leading to the self-compensation of the shallow Al donor impurity. This process is accompanied by the emergence and development of a self-activated luminescence band associated with the (VZnAlZn) acceptor centers. We show that further increase of the Al content in the melt (≥10 at. %) leads to the dissociation of the acceptor complexes and to a recurrent donor doping effect. The photoluminescence spectra of such crystals are dominated by activated luminescence via the (CuZnVSeCu𝑖) and (CuZnAlZn) associative centers.

    Photoluminescence study of ZnO nanostructures grown on silicon by MOCVD [Articol]
    (Elsevier, 2012) Sirkeli, Vadim; Nedeoglo, Dmitrii
    ZnO 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.

    Magnetic and luminescent properties of iron-doped ZnSe crystals [Articol]
    (Elsevier, 2010) Kulyuk, Leonid; Nedeoglo, Dmitrii; Nedeoglo, Natalia; Radevici, Ivan; Sirkeli, Vadim; Sushkevich, Konstantin
    Magnetic and luminescent properties of ZnSe crystals doped with Fe by various methods are studied. It is established that Fe impurity is responsible for photoluminescence (PL) bands at 980, 1320, 1450 nm and quenches PL band at 630–645 nm. It is found that magnetic properties of ZnSe:Fe crystals are sensitive to the doping method. At low fields, two magnetic subsystems may be observed for the samples doped with Fe during the growth process—weak paramagnetic subsystem and antiferromagnetic subsystem with TС=–130 K. For the samples doped with Fe by high-temperature annealing in Zn melt, few magnetic subsystems may be distinguished, however, the magnetic properties are typical for spin glasses with the transition temperature Tsg=(45–50) K.
