Abstract [en]

We have developed a virtual GaN substrate on sapphire based on a two-step growth method. By optimizing the growth scheme for the virtual substrate we have improved crystal quality and reduced interface roughness. Our Al0.22Ga0.78N/GaN HEMT structure grown on the optimized semi-insulating GaN virtual substrate, exhibits Hall mobilities as high as 1720 and 7350 cm(2)/Vs and sheet carrier concentrations of 8.4 x 1012 and 10.0 x 1012 cm(-2) at 300 K and 20 K, respectively The presence of good AlGaN/GaN interface quality and surface morphology is also substantiated by X-Ray reflectivity and Atomic Force Microscopy measurements. A simplified transport model is used to fit the experimental Hall mobility.

Abstract [en]

A simple AlGaN/GaN HEMT structure without any interlayer on Fe-doped GaN (GaN:Fe) grown by LP-MOVPE in one single run on sapphire is demonstrated. The surface segregation of Fe in GaN occurring during growth is identified. Hall measurements yield 2DEG (two dimensional electron gas) mobilities of 1700 and 10700 cm2/Vs and sheet carrier concentrations of 5.1×10 12 and 5.7×1012 cm-2 at 300 K and 20 K, respectively. Good pinch-off current-voltage (ID-VD) characteristics is observed from AlGaN/GaN HEMTs. A maximum drain current density of 0.6 A/mm and a peak extrinsic transconductance of 200 mS/mm have been observed. The HEMT structure yields very good device isolation as indicated by an isolation current of ≀1 nA at 20 V.

Abstract [en]

Carrier trapping of Fe (3+)/Fe2+ deep acceptors in epitaxially grown GaN:Fe on sapphire was studied by time-resolved photoluminescence. For the investigated Fe doping levels on the order of 10(18) cm(-3), the luminescence decay times are strongly dependent on the Fe concentration, indicating that Fe centers act as predominant nonradiative recombination channels. Linear dependence of the decay time on the iron concentration allows estimation of the electron capture cross-section for the Fe3+ ions, which is equal to 1.9 x 10(-15) cm(2). The upper bound for the cross-section of the hole capture of Fe2+ was evaluated as 10 x 10(-15) cm

Abstract [en]

The materials quality and availability of large-area bulk GaN substrates is currently considered a key problem for the continuing development of improved GaN-based devices. Since industrial fabrication of bulk GaN substrates with suitable materials quality has proven very difficult, the opto-GaN industry is currently based on heteroepitaxy using either c-sapphire or 6H SiC substrates. ZnO is promising as a substrate material for GaN because it has the same wurtzite structure and a relatively small lattice mismatch (similar to 1.8%). In this study, we have successfully grown GaN by MOVPE on ZnO-buffered c-sapphire. The growth conditions required to both prevent ZnO degradation and grow monocrystal thin film of GaN have been obtained. SEM, HRXRD and micro-Raman characterizations underlined the presence of the two layers GaN and ZnO with high structural quality.

Abstract [en]

We report epitaxial growth of GaN layers on z- and x-cut LiNbO3 substrates using MOVPE. GaN layers with the thickness of 450 nm were characterized using X-ray diffraction. For both, z- and x-cut orientations of LiNbO3 substrates, the GaN layers have c-axis orientation normal to the substrate plane and the in-plane lattice orientation of GaN layers coincides with the primary axes of LiNbO3 substrates. Although GaN layers exhibit almost complete strain relaxation, the residual compressive strain determined with respect to a freestanding GaN is of the order of +0.37% and +0.2% for z- and x-cut substrates, respectively.

Abstract [en]

The development of wide band gap semiconductors extends their applications in optoelectronics devices to the UV domain. Compact lasers and high sensitivity APD detectors in UV range are currently needed for different applications such as, purification, covert communication and real time detection of airborne pathogens. Until now, the full exploitation of these potential materials has been limited by the lack of suitable GaN substrates. Recently, a novel class of materials has been reported based on BGaN and BAlN, potentially reducing the crystal defect densities by orders of magnitude compared to existing wide band gap heterostructures. Characteristics of these new alloys are similar to those of AlGaN materials with the advantage that these can be lattice matched to AlN and SiC substrates. In addition, these materials offer the possibility of using quaternary BAlGaN alloys at Ultra Violet (UV) wavelengths and hence lead to more degrees of freedom in designing sophisticated device structures. In this paper we describe the MOVPE growth conditions used to incorporate boron in GaN and AlGaN. Detailed characterization and analysis in terms of structural and electrical properties are discussed.

Abstract [en]

Ten period GaN/AlN multiple quantum well (MQW) structures were grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on sapphire substrates and metal-organic vapour-phase epitaxy (MOVPE)-grown GaN templates. Samples were investigated by high-resolution X-ray diffraction (HR-XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Intersubband (IS) absorbances and FWHM of IS absorption peaks indicated that samples grown on the GaN templates had better characteristics, resulting in a FWHM as low as 93 meV at a peak energy of 700 meV.
