微纳跨尺度ZnO结构的紫外发射机理研究

利用气相输运的方法在Si(100)衬底上生长了ZnO的微纳跨尺度结构.扫描电镜照片可以明显地看到样品表面为椎顶六角微米柱-纳米棒的复合结构.样品在室温下的光致发光谱出现了很强的紫外发射峰,没有观察到与杂质或缺陷相关的深能级发射，表明样品有很好的光学质量.通过详细的研究样品的紫外发射谱与温度(83—307K)的依赖关系，发现在室温下样品的近带边发射包含两个部分，分别与自由激子发射和自由载流子到施主(受主)的跃迁(FB跃迁)相关,这个施主(受主)束缚态的离化能为124.6meV. 关键词： ZnO微纳跨尺度结构 光致发光谱 自由载流子到施主(受主)的跃迁 自由激子发射

Study on ultraviolet emission mechanism of micro-nano multi-scale ZnO structures

The micro-nano multi-scale ZnO structure was synthesized by the vapor phase transport process onto Si (100) substrate. A typical scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the sample clearly showed the surface has the complex structure of hexagonal micro and nano- rods. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra at room temperature showed an intense near-band-gap ultraviolet (UV) emission peak but no deep level emission related to impurities or defects, indicating that the sample has good optical quality. The temperature (83—307K) dependence of the PL spectra showed that the room-temperature UV emission resulted from two optical transitions, one related to the ZnO free exciton and the other related to the free-to-bound (FB) transition of the free cawier with the binding energy of about 124.6meV.
