Abstract
The photoluminescence of ZnO films grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) on silicon substrates has been investigated. A new broad photoluminescence band has been revealed in the exciton region of the spectrum. The properties of the band in the spectra of the films with different crystallographic orientations of substrates have been studied in a wide temperature range at different excitation levels. A model describing the origin of the new band has been proposed.
