    Abstract

    Carrier dynamics of epitaxial ZnO thin film was investigated using a frequency up-conversion tehcnique. At lower carrier densities, the decay time of free exciton recombination was measured to be 24 ps. Rapid decay times of a few picoseconds were observed at higher carrier densities, which show a transition of two dynamic processes. The comparison of calculated gain spectrum and experimental data gave evidence that the transition is form exciton-exciton scattering to the recombination of electron hole plasma.
