Abstract

Ga0.5In0.5P has been investigated using optically detected cyclotron resonance and photoluminescence techniques. For the disordered alloy, the electron mass is determined to m*=0.092 m0, and for ordered material (band gap reduction ~ 50 meV) the value m*=0.088 m0 is found. The experimentally deduced values are compared with those obtained from a five-band kp calculation.
