RT Journal Article T1 Assessment of waveguiding properties of gallium oxide nanostructures by angle resolved cathodoluminescence in a scanning electron microscope A1 Nogales Díaz, Emilio A1 Méndez Martín, María Bianchi A1 Piqueras De Noriega, Francisco Javier AB Cathodoluminescence (CL) of Ga2O3 nanowires and planar microstructures has been studied in a scanning electron microscope, as a function of the orientation angle of the structures relative to the position of the light detection system in the microscope chamber. CL contrast shows a marked dependence on the detection angle due to the waveguiding behaviour of the structures. The angle resolved cathodoluminescence (ARCL) measurements enable to evaluate the optical losses of guided blue-ultraviolet light in nanowires with diameters in the sub-wavelength range, deposited on graphite tape or silicon. In planar, branched feather-like microstructures, ARCL images demonstrate the directional-dependant light guiding behaviour of the nano-branches.
