Cathodoluminescence can be used to study ceramics, dielectrics and semiconductors (both in bulk and nanostructured materials) and to determine their light-emitting properties at the nanoscale. This presentation helps you to understand how cathodoluminescence works and its application for gallium nitride semiconductor materials. The SPARC is a high-performance cathodoluminescence detection system that is designed and produced by Delmic. Using our cathodoluminescence system, you will get a valuable source of information and a full experimental freedom with an open-source software and modularity of the system.
