Notes:
We report a photoluminescence (PL) study of ZnS/ZnMgS strained-layer single quantum wells. The main PL peak from ZnS is attributed to light-hole free excitons. Quantum confinement causes it to shift from 3.76 eV to higher energy, 3.84 eV, with decreasing well width. Hydrostatic and shear deformation potentials are determined from energies of light- and heavy-hole exciton emission, to be a=−6.4 eV and b=−1.0 eV, respectively. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
