Raman spectra of CdTe/ZnTe self-assembled quantum dots

In this paper, we present Raman scattered spectra and results of photoluminescence (PL) measurements of CdTe/ZnTe self-assembled quantum dots (SAQD). The PL spectrum displayed two main emission peaks, both connected with the existing of QDs. One presents direct deexcitation to ground state and the other is optical phonon (ω=204.2 cm^?1)-assisted deexcitation. The registered multiphonon (MP) emission process depends on temperature. At low temperature, one-phonon spectra shows line at 200.4 and 210.3 cm^?1 (ZnTe LO mode confined by degenerate superlattices), 217 cm^?1 (TA+LO in ZnTe) and 386 cm^?1 (LO+TO(Γ) in ZnTe).     

Temperature dependence of the photoluminescence energy of CdTe/ZnTe heterostructures

The photoluminescence (PL) energy was calculated for the heterostructure CdTe/ZnTe, where the emission is based on quantum confinement. This system was studied because it yields a high-intensity emission, covering a wide range of the visible spectrum wavelengths. Our calculations obtained the energy of the fundamental state for electrons and holes, as well as the PL energy using both the Varshni and Manoogian–Woolley formalisms taking into consideration the effects of strain. The Varshni and M–W formalisms for the study of the band gap energy as a function of the temperature differ for high- and low-temperature values. This is because the M–W model takes into account the thermal dilatation and electron–phonon interaction through the U and V parameters. The calculations used quantum wells based on the CdTe/ZnTe heterostructure with different thicknesses (number of monolayers) and involved analyzing the dependence on the thickness and barrier height. The aims of this study were analyzing how the shift occurs in the emission color while increasing of the quantum-well width, and studying the temperature dependence of two different formalisms. The PL energy as a function of the quantum well thickness presents an inflection point at around five monolayers, which is in agreement with reports regarding the critical thickness of heterostructure CdTe/ZnTe. This inflection point is modified when the strain in the heterostructure is taken into account.

Microstructural Characterization of CdTe(211)B/ZnTe/Si(211) Heterostructures Grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy

Transmission electron microscopy and small-probe microanalysis have been used to investigate the microstructure and compositional profiles of CdTe(211)B/ZnTe/Si(211) heterostructures. Thin ZnTe buffer layers and subsequent thick CdTe layers were grown on Si(211) substrates using molecular beam epitaxy. Many {111}-type stacking faults were found to be present throughout the entire ZnTe layer, terminating near the point of initiation of CdTe growth. A rotation angle of about 3.5° was observed between lattice planes of the Si substrate and the final CdTe epilayer. Local lattice parameter measurement and elemental profiles indicated that some intermixing of Zn and Cd had taken place. The average widths of the ZnTe layer and the (Cd,Zn)Te transition region were found to be roughly 6.5 nm and 3.5 nm, respectively.     

IR spectroscopy of lattice vibrations and comparative analysis of the ZnTe/CdTe quantum-dot superlattices on the GaAs substrate and with the ZnTe and CdTe buffer layers

A comparative analysis of multiperiod ZnTe/CdTe superlattices with the CdTe quantum dots grown by molecular beam epitaxy on the GaAs substrate with the ZnTe and CdTe buffer layers is carried out. The elastic-stress-induced shifts of eigenfrequencies of the modes of the CdTe- and ZnTe-like vibrations of materials forming similar superlattices but grown on different buffer ZnTe and CdTe layers are compared. The conditions of formation of quantum dots in the ZnTe/CdTe superlattices on the ZnTe and CdTe buffer layers differ radically.

The dependence of a strain-induced shift of the studied modes on the number of monolayers and relative thickness of constituents is analyzed.     

Characterization of Cd1-xZnxTe (0≤x≤1) Nanolayers Grown by Atomic Layer Deposition on GaSb and GaAs (001) Oriented Substrates

ZnTe, CdTe, and the ternary alloy CdZnTe are important semiconductor materials used widely for the detection of an important range of electromagnetic radiation as gamma ray and X-ray. Although, recently these materials have acquired renewed importance due to the new explored nanolayer properties of modern devices. In addition, as shown in this work they can be grown using uncomplicated synthesis techniques based on the deposition in vapour phase of the elemental precursors. This work presents the results obtained from the deposition of nanolayers of these materials using the precursor vapour on GaAs and GaSb (001) substrates. This growth technique, extensively known as atomic layer deposition (ALD), allows the layers growth with nanometric dimension. The main results presented in this work are the used growth parameters and the results of the structural characterization of the layers by the means of Raman spectroscopy measurements. Raman scattering shows the peak corresponding to longitudinal optical (LO)-ZnTe, which is weak and slightly redshift in comparison with that reported for the ZnTe bulk at 210 cm–1. For the case of the CdTe nanolayer, Raman spectra presented the LO-CdTe peak, which is indicative of the successful growth of the layer. Its weak and slightly redshift in comparison with that reported for the CdTe bulk can be related with the nanometric characteristic of this layer. The performed high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HR-XRD) measurement allows to study some important characteristics such as the crystallinity of the grown layer. In addition, the HR-XRD measurement suggests that the crystalline quality has dependence on the growth temperature.
