Abstract

Photoluminescence measurements on ordered InGaP2 were studied as a function of temperature, laser power density, and magnetic field. The temperature varied between 1.4 and 300 K, the laser power densities ranged from 10 nW/cm2 to 20 W/cm2, and the maximum magnetic field was 13.6 T. The data show two spectra, excitonic and band-to-band transitions, depending upon the incident laser power density. A consistent interpretation of the band-to-band spectrum leads to a spatially separated electron-hole transitions between the ordered domains. Three different mechanisms for spatially indirect transitions are presented. An analysis of the linear data also allows a determination of the valence-band mass in the 100 direction of mv ∼0.25 m0.
