Original Abstract

Local defects of optoelectronic devices with pn junction affect parameters of whole devices and their quality. For the defects localization purposes the emission of photons from reverse biased devices can be used. Actual results turns out, that those particular light emitting centers can have different physical nature. Some of these defects have indisputable connection with surface morphology, however some not, which makes localization more difficult. In this paper only microholes are investigated. Microscopic localization is not elementary due to small defect size (in submicron range) and low emission intensity. Experimental results are shown and discussed.
