TLDR
In this article, two mechanisms are proposed for the release of charges due to thermal ionization of the centres and migration of charges on the impurity centres, and the probability of the occurrence of impurity migration is discussed.
Abstract
Thermoluminescence of AlN: O in the 80–420 K temperature range is described. Two mechanisms are proposed for its explanation: the release of charges due to thermal ionization of the centres and migration of charges on the impurity centres. The probability of the occurrence of impurity migration is discussed.

Trap spectroscopy by the fractional glow technique

TL;DR: In this paper, a theory of the fractional glow technique (FGT) for an arbitrary heating regime and first-order recombination kinetics is developed, where the mean activation energy, the mean frequency factor, the recombination intensity, and the FGT energy spectrum as the TDF image in activation energy scale are presented.

Overview of band-edge and defect related luminescence in aluminum nitride

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overview of the published results describing near band-edge and defect related luminescence in aluminum nitride, also presenting findings from theoretical reports investigating band-structure, intrinsic defects or foreign impurities.

Investigation of Oxygen-Related Luminescence Centres in AlN Ceramics

TL;DR: The structure of oxygen-related luminescence centres in nominally undoped and Y 2 O 3 doped AlN ceramics was investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) and optically-detected EPR as discussed by the authors.

Effect of swift heavy ion irradiations in polycrystalline aluminum nitride

TL;DR: In this paper, specimens were irradiated with swift heavy ions of different energies then characterized by both thermally stimulated luminescence and optical absorption spectrophotometry, and the native defects, as well as those affected by irradiation, were identified.

Spectroscopy of traps by fractional glow technique

TL;DR: In this paper, the average depth of those traps which are preferentially emptied at any time in the course of the glow curve if a large number of small temperature oscillations is superposed on the uniform warming (fractional glow technique) is used.

Electron-Capture ("Internal") Luminescence from the Oxygen Donor in Gallium Phosphide

TL;DR: In this paper, the infrared radiative capture of electrons at ionized oxygen donors in gallium phosphide was reported. But the authors did not consider the effect of phonon-assisted transitions.

Optical Absorption Edge of AIN Single Crystals

TL;DR: From measurements of the absorption coefficient of AIN single crystals, the direct band gap values EG = (5.88 ± 0.05) eV and EG = 5.74 ± 1.05 eV for E ⟂ c and E ∥ c, respectively, are determined as mentioned in this paper.
