Abstract

The use of time-of-flight cathodoluminescence measurements in the studies of semiconductor samples partially covered with a light-absorbing mask of special geometry in order to obtain new quantitative information about the properties of materials is shown. The values of the exciton diffusion coefficient are determined from the results obtained in an experimental study of gallium nitride.
