Abstract(in English) The 250-500 nm-thick LnGaAsN (In = 17.0%, N= 0-2.3%) alloy films were grown on GaAs(001) substrates by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) at 600 ℃ with dimethylhydrazine as the N precursor. Low-temperature (11 K) and room temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra showed a continuous red-shift with increasing N content (0-2.3%). The temperature dependence of the PL spectra is excellent with a near-band-edge emission peak for low N contents (<2.3%). Additionally, the carrier/exciton localization induced by alloy disorders in the microscopic structure was observed. On the other hand, the film with high N content (2.3%) showed that the dominant spectra contain several broad PL bands of unknown origin, in addition to the InGaAsN-related emission. The different luminescence emissions, which corresponded the In- and N-related localization, from the different regions of the In_<0.17> Ga_<0.83> As_<0.977> N_<0.023> alloy film were also observed. Furthermore, from transmission electron microscope images, the nearly defecting free InGaAsN layer was obtained for the films with low N content (1.0%). In contrast, for the films with higher N content (2.3%), the formation of structural defects was clearly observed. Our results suggest that the compositional fluctuation of both In and N, which is responsible for the formation of structural defects as well as for the carrier/exciton localization, increases with increasing N concentration.
