Abstract

Studies of spin-flip Raman scattering of holes bound to acceptors in a sample of nitrogen-doped epitaxial zinc selenide grown by metallo-organic vapour phase epitaxy are reported. The resonance behaviour of the spin-flip Raman signals is discussed. The observed spin-flip Raman shifts extrapolate to a splitting between light and heavy hole states of zero at zero magnetic field, suggesting that strain effects are negligible. Given this and assuming that diamagnetic shifts are negligible over the magnetic field range of the measurements, preliminary values for the g-values of the bound heavy and light holes in the [001] direction of g 3 2 = 0.82 and g 1 2 = 0.90 respectively are obtained.
