Superposition of the luminescence spectra of free and bound excitons in ZnP2-D48

Abstract

The luminescence spectra of ZnP2 tetragonal crystals doped Mn, Sn, Cd, Sb at 10 K emission lines of bound excitons is detected. In the spectra non-phonon emission lines of bound and free excitons and their phonon replicas is isolated. The emission lines by the levels of the axial center are described. The composition of the luminescence of free and bound excitons at the axial center is investigated. In the region of phonon replicas of free excitons observed enhancement of lines due to forbidden transitions involving the recombination of excitons. A model of optic recombination transitions of the axial centre is proposed.
