Abstract :
Using ZnCl2 as a doping source, we have grown epitaxial layers of Cl-doped ZnSe onto GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The maximum carrier concentration obtained was 1.2 1019 cm-3. An increase in the deep level emission was observed in the photoluminescence (PL) spectra of highly doped samples. By deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) measurements four electron traps with energy levels of Ec=0.50, 0.68, 0.74 and 1.20 eV were detected
