The optical properties have been monitored by cathodoluminescence measurements as a function of the deformation degree. Remarkable differences in the defect-related emissions from the most severely deformed areas have been encountered. Deformation of the crystal lattice of ZnSe, associated with slip phenomena, has been studied by means of Electron Backscattered Diffraction and micro-Raman spectroscopy. The relation between the deformation and the optical properties of the ZnSe crystals has been described.engjournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.5128878https://aip.scitation.org/open access538.9Blue-green laserStressPhotoluminescenceLuminescenceCathodoluminescenceSemiconductorsIndentationDiamondShiftsZnoFísica de materialesFísica del estado sólido2211 Física del Estado Sólido
