(Received September 13, 1993; accepted for publication February 19, 1994)
Chlorine-doped (Cl-doped) n-type ZnSe films were prepared on GaAs(100) substrates by hot wall epitaxy (HWE) using ZnCl2 as a doping source. The electron concentration could be controlled from 8.4×1014 cm-3 to 2.8×1019 cm-3 by varying the ZnCl2 temperature. ZnSe films with an electron concentration above 1019 cm-3, having a donor-bound excitonic photoluminescence emission (I2) without deep level emission were obtained for the first time. The activation energy of the chlorine donor was estimated to be 26.7 meV from the photon energy of I2. The existence of Cl in the films was confirmed by SIMS. Moreover, the Cl-doped ZnSe–ZnS superlattices with high electron concentration on the order of 1017 cm-3 and excitonic PL emissions associated with the free exciton, were obtained for the first time.
