From the band¿gap energy dispersion, the magnitude of the strain inhomogeneities. Is quantified and its microscopic origin is analyzed in view of the layer microstructure. TEM observations reveal a dislocation network at the layer interface the density of which correlates with ¿¿. It is concluded that local variations of dislocation density are responsible for the inhomogeneous strain field together with another mechanism that dominates when the dislocation density is very low.3 p.application/pdfeng(c) American Institute of Physics, 1995Propietats òptiquesOptical propertiesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article91323info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
