Popis: We report on photoluminescence in a ZnO/GaN heterostructure, which showed a donor–acceptor pair emission band at 3.270 eV and the longitudinal optical phonon replicas at 12 K. In comparison with p-type GaN, the positions of the peaks are redshifted. This may be associated with the variation of the residual strain in the GaN layer of the heterostructure. Using this heterostructure, near-ultraviolet light-emitting diodes were fabricated and their electroluminescence properties were characterized.
