Abstract :
We have studied the exciton fine structures of nitrogen isoelectronic centers in GaAs. Atomically controlled nitrogen doping into GaAs realizes a series of distinct, strong, narrow bandwidth bound-exciton luminescences. The exciton fine structure has been found to consist of four signals, which can be selected by the linear polarization. Our calculations have succeeded in reproducing the optical selection characteristics when considering both the J-J coupling and local-field effects in the C2v symmetry.
