Abstract

Spectral characteristics of spontaneous and stimulated luminescence have been studied for molecular beam epitaxy synthesized Al x Ga1–x N/AlN solid solutions with x = 0.5 and 0.74 upon optical pumping by pulse laser radiation with λ = 266 nm. Broadband radiation spectra with a width of ~260 THz for Al0.5Ga0.5N and ~360 THz for Al0.74Ga0.26N have been obtained. The measured enhancement factors are g ≈ 70 cm–1 for Al0.5Ga0.5N at λ ≈ 528 nm and g ≈ 20 cm–1 for Al0.74Ga0.26N at λ ≈ 468 nm.
