    Composition and surface optical properties of GaSe: Eu crystals before and after heat treatment [Articol]
    (2024) Sprincean, Veaceslav; Haoyi, Qiu; Tjardts, Tim; Lupan, Oleg; Untila, Dumitru; Aktas, Oral Cenk; Adelung, Rainer; Leontie, Liviu; Cârlescu, Aurelian; Gurlui, Silviu; Caraman, Mihail
    This work studies the technological preparation conditions, morphology, structural char- acteristics and elemental composition, and optical and photoluminescent properties of GaSe single crystals and Eu-doped β–Ga2O3 nanoformations on ε–GaSe:Eu single crystal substrate, obtained by heat treatment at 750–900 ◦C, with a duration from 30 min to 12 h, in water vapor-enriched atmosphere, of GaSe plates doped with 0.02–3.00 at. % Eu. The defects on the (0001) surface of GaSe:Eu plates serve as nucleation centers of β–Ga2O3:Eu crystallites. For 0.02 at. % Eu doping, the fundamental absorption edge of GaSe:Eu crystals at room temperature is formed by n = 1 direct excitons, while at 3.00 at. % doping, Eu completely shields the electron–hole bonds. The band gap of nanostructured β–Ga2O3:Eu layer, determined from diffuse reflectance spectra, depends on the dopant concentration and ranges from 4.64 eV to 4.87 eV, for 3.00 and 0.05 at. % doping, respectively. At 0.02 at. % doping level, the PL spectrum of ε–GaSe:Eu single crystals consists of the n = 1 exciton band, together with the impurity band with a maximum intensity at 800 nm. Fabry–Perrot cavities with a width of 9.3 μm are formed in these single crystals, which determine the interference structure of the impurity PL band. At 1.00–3.00 at. % Eu concentrations, the PL spectra of GaSe:Eu single crystals and β–Ga2O3:Eu nanowire/nanolamellae layers are determined by electronic transitions of Eu2+ and Eu3+ ions.

    Synthesis and optical properties of Ga2O3 nanowires grown on GaS substrate [Articol]
    (Elsevier, 2019) Leontie, L.; Sprincean, Veaceslav; Spaltu, N.; Cojocaru, A.; Susu, Ana; Lupan, Oleg; Vatavu, Elmira; Carlescu, Aurelian; Untila, Dumitru; Caraman, Iuliana; Evtodiev, Igor; Tiginyanu, Ion; Caraman, Mihail
    Gallium oxide (β-Ga2O3) nanowires were synthesized by heat treatment of single crystal β-GaS plates in air. Crystal structure and composition of synthesized materials were studied by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Thermal treatment of β-GaS plates at 1023 K leads to the formation of a Ga2O3 (native oxide) layer on β-GaS (0001) surface of plates. Layer thickness and size of Ga2O3 wires contained were found to depend on temperature and duration of applied heat treatment. For 1023 K and 6 h, the length of Ga2O3 wires laid in the range from units to tens of nanometers, while for 1123 K and 30 min, between 30 and 40 μm.

    Optical and Photoelectric Properties of Nanolamellar Structures Obtained by Thermal Annealing of InSe Plates in Zn Vapours [Articol]
    (John Wiley & Sons, 2018) Untila, Dumitru; Evtodiev, Igor; Caraman, Iuliana; Spalatu, Nicolae; Dmitroglo, Liliana; Caraman, Mihail
    The structural, optical and photoelectric properties of InSe crystals grown by Bridgman–Stockbarger method and ZnSe/InSe structures obtained on InSe by thermal annealing in Zn vapours are studied in this paper. The study of structural properties confirms that ZnSe compound is formed. The analysis of photoelectric properties reveal that both the ZnSe‐InSe composite layer and the composite/InSe heterojunction are photosensitive in the VIS‐NIR spectral region. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

    Optical properties of ZnO thin films obtained by heat treatment of Zn thin films on amorphous SiO2 substrates and single crystalline GaSe lamellas [Articol]
    (Elsevier, 2016) Dmitroglo, Liliana; Evtodiev, Igor; Untila, Dumitru
    Optical absorption and photoluminescence of polycrystalline ZnO films obtained by thermal oxidation of Zn thin films deposited on amorphous SiO 2 (quartz) and (0001) surface of single crystalline GaSe lamellas have been investigated. The absorption edge of submicrometric ZnO films on quartz is determined by direct transitions corresponding to an optical band gap of 3.88 eV, at 300 K. For ZnO films with thickness between 1.5 and 10 μm, the absorption threshold is of excitonic nature. Photoluminescence of polycrystalline ZnO films on amorphous quartz reaches its maximum in the orange spectral range, while that of ZnO films on oriented single crystalline GaSe substrate covers the entire visible range.
