Excitonic and deep-level emission from N- and Al-polar homoepitaxial AlN grown by molecular beam epitaxy

Using low-temperature cathodoluminescence spectroscopy, we study the properties of N- and Al-polar AlN layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy on bulk AlN{0001}. Compared with the bulk AlN substrate, layers of both polarities feature a suppression of deep-level luminescence, a total absence of the pr...
