摘要
Pairs of bright spots aligned parallel to the cleaved sample edges are observed in micro-photoluminescence intensity maps of ZnSe/ZnMgSSe quantum-well structures. Structural characterization by atomic-force microscopy, plan-view and cross-section transmission electron microscopy reveal that the enhanced radiative recombination is induced by pairs of stacking faults intersecting the quantum wells. In the case of Frank-type stacking faults the wells are enlarged by up to 12 bilayers leading to an efficient exciton localization. This localization is much shallower in the case of Shockley-type stacking-fault pairs.
