Abstract

The band-gap energy of the IIb–VIb ternary alloy ZnS x Se1-x can be tuned from ∼2.7 eV (x=0) up to over 3.6 eV (x=1.0) [1], Much interest has, therefore, been focused on this alloy system in optoelectronic devices in the blue-near-UV spectral region (see Ref. [2]). Note that ZnS x Se1-x layers with x=0.05–0.08 are nearly lattice-matched to GaAs substrate. Thus, the alloy system is important for the realization of ZnSe-based blue-green semiconductor lasers.
