First, I will focus on hBN crystals where the combination of isotopic purification, Raman scattering and polarized-resolved photoluminescence allowed us to identify the different phonon modes involved in the efficient phonon-assisted recombination in bulk hBN. In a second part, I will discuss photoluminescence experiments in epilayers grown by high-temperature molecular beam epitaxy. These epilayers have a thickness of few monolayers of hBN, and I will show that phonon-assisted recombination displays a distinct phenomenology with a PL spectrum different from the one of bulk crystals. %G English %L hal-02289705 %U https://hal.science/hal-02289705 %~ CNRS %~ L2C %~ MIPS %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ UM-2015-2021
