Annotation

The possibility of obtaining light emitters on ZnO:Mg heterostructures has been established. In these structures, high radiation intensity is created as a result of preliminary doping of ZnSe substrates with an isovalent Mg impurity. ZnO:Mg was grown by isovalent substitution of Zn anions with oxygen at temperatures of 950-1050 °C. This results in the formation of heterostructures with intense radiation in the short-wave region Δλ ≈ 0.36-0.42 m with a maximum at 0.38 m. Preliminary doping of the base material with an isovalent Mg impurity causes a significant increase in the quantum efficiency of ZnO radiation to η ≈ 20-25 %. It has been established that it is formed by the annihilation of bound excitons, recombination through local Mg energy states, and intense interband recombination.
