Abstract

Site-selective combined excitation emission spectroscopy studies have been performed on Eu-doped GaN and numerous sites have been identified. Relative numbers and broadening of these peaks has been investigated for different growth conditions and for increasing AL content of the AlxGa1-xN alloy.
