Abstract

We have investigated excimer laser annnealing of Na doped ZnSe, with emphasis on photoluminescence (PL) characterization as a probe of resultant changes in materials properties. We observed a relative increase, after annealing, of Na on substitutional (acceptor) sites vs. Na on interstitial (donor) sites. Another result was the occurrence of extensive twinning; unfortunately such twinning has complicated the analysis of other changes.
