For nitride-based laser diodes and LEDs high quality AlGaN electron blocking layers are required. With increasing Al content the lattice mismatch between GaN and AlGaN leads to a modified strain situation and to the introduction of structural defects. In this study, we investigate the luminescence features of such AlGaN on GaN layers. Spatially resolved cathodolumenescence (CL) recorded at temperatures below 10K using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) performed on cross sections allows to determine the spatial and spectral distribution of luminescence features contributing to the global emission spectra. Micrographs and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) maps recorded in a transmission electron microscope (TEM) at the same sample area allow the direct assignment of optical bands to structural features like defects and regions with different Al content.
