EFFECT OF у- IRRADIATION ON THE OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF ZnSe/ZnCdSe QUANTUM-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURES

Abstract

In this paper, we studied the effect o f Co60 gamma-ray irradiation on the optical characteristics o f single and several compressed-stressed CdxZm-xSe/ZnSe QCS with the composition x=0.2-0.4 grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Photoluminescent properties o f a series o f samples with single and multiple wells o f the same thickness and different composition as well as different thickness o f the same composition were studied. The spreading o f quantum wells after gamma-ray irradiation was studied.
