Abstract

ZnSe epilayers were grown on semi-insulating GaAs (100) substrates by ALE (atomic layer epitaxy) modified from CVD (chemical vapor deposition). The optical properties of ZnSe films depending on thickness were studied through micro-Raman and PL (photoluminescence) spectroscopy. The critical thickness was determined to be about 0.1 μm by analyzing the change in the peak shift of LO-phonon modes of ZnSe films. This is confirmed from the increase of the intensities of the deep center band in the PL spectra when the thickness exceeds 0.1 μm.
