Abstract

The temperature dependence of the energy gap of Mg_xZn _yCd_1-x-ySe (x ∼ 0.5) and Zn_0.5Cd _0.5Se alloys was determined from reflectivity measurements at temperatures between 4.2 and 300 K. The data were fitted to a Bose-Einstein type relationship and temperature dependence of band gaps was compared. A similar temperature dependence of band gap was observed indicating that quantum confinement in the Mg_xZn_yCd_1-x-ySe/Zn _0.5Cd_0.5Se quantum wells did not depend on temperature.
