Time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) experiments on ZnO crystals have been conducted at room temperature to elucidate the origins of a near-band edge (NBE) emission. A temporal profile of the PL spectra exhibits a two-curve structure with different decaying rates and is reproduced reasonably by a biexponential function, indicating that there are at least two origins with different decay times in the NBE emission. By taking free exciton (FX)–longitudinal optical (LO) phonon interactions into account in the analysis of the PL spectra, the faster and slower decaying emissions are found to be associated with stronger and weaker FX-LO phonon coupling, respectively. We propose that the NBE emissions with different decay times are related to crystal imperfections; the fast-decaying emission originates from the region with a higher density of defects or impurities, while the slower one is from the regions with better crystallinity.
