RT Journal Article T1 Cathodoluminescence and photoluminescence study of plastically deformed ZnTe bulk single crystals A1 Garcia, J. A. A1 Fernández Sánchez, Paloma A1 Remon, A. A1 Piqueras de Noriega, Javier A1 Munoz, V. A1 Triboulet, R. AB Samples of zinc telluride bulk single crystals, which were deformed in uniaxial compression, have been studied by photoluminescence (PL) and cathodoluminescence (CL). As a particular feature the deformed samples present a PL emission band peaked at 603 nm, whose intensity increases as the plastic deformation does. This band is related to the density of dislocations produced during the interaction of slip systems. This hypothesis is supported by CL images. which reveal the activation of the successive slip systems corresponding to different levels of deformation.
