N极性GaN/AlGaN异质结二维电子气模拟

通过自洽求解薛定谔方程和泊松方程,较系统地研究了GaN沟道层、AlGaN背势垒层、Si掺杂和AlN插入层对N极性GaN/AlGaN异质结中二维电子气(2DEG)的影响,分析表明,GaN沟道层厚度、AlGaN背势垒层厚度及Al组分变大都能一定程度上提高二维电子气面密度,AlGaN背势垒层的厚度和Al组分变大也可提高二维电子气限阈性,且不同的Si掺杂形式对二维电子气的影响也有差异,而AlN插入层在提高器件二维电子气面密度、限阈性等方面表现都较为突出,在模拟中GaN沟道层厚度小于5nm时无法形成二维电子气,超过20nm后二维电子气面密度趋于饱和,而AlGaN背势垒厚度超过40nm后二维电子气也有饱和趋势,对均匀掺杂和delta掺杂而言AlGaN背势垒层Si掺杂浓度超过5×10~(19)cm~(-3)后2DEG面密度开始饱和,而厚度为2nmAlN插入层的引入会使2DEG面密度从无AlN插入层时的0.93×10~(13)cm~(-2)提高到1.17×10~(13)cm~(-2)。

AlGaN势垒层掺杂对二维电子气的影响较弱, 当掺杂浓度从1×10-17增加到1×10-18cm-3时，二维电子气面密度增加0.2×10-13cm-2. 关键词： AlxGa1-xN/GaN 异质结构 二维电子气 自发极化 压电极化

Two-dimensional electron gas densities in AlGaN/AlN/GaN heterostructures

The dependence of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) density and distribution in an Al_xGa_1-xN/AlN/GaN heterostructure on the thicknesses of the Al_xGa_1-xN barrier layer and the AlN interfacial layer are investigated theoretically. A competitive contribution of the AlGaN and AlN layers to the 2DEG density is revealed. For an AlN interfacial layer thinner than a critical value d_cAlN, the 2DEG density is dominated by the AlGaN barrier and the 2DEG density increases with the increase of the AlGaN barrier thickness, as in the case of a simple AlGaN/GaN heterostructure. While the AlN interfacial layer will take the dominant contribution to the 2DEG density as its thickness exceeds d_cAlN. In this case, the increase of AlGaN barrier layer thickness leads to the decrease of the 2DEG density. Detailed calculations show that the critical AlN thickness increases with the increase of Al content in the AlGaN barrier. PACS 85.30.De; 73.40.Kp; 02.60.Cb

The low-temperature mobility of two-dimensional electron gas in AlGaN/GaN heterostructures

To reveal the internal physics of the low-temperature mobility of two-dimensional electron gas （2DEG） in Al- GaN/GaN heterostructures, we present a theoretical study of the strong dependence of 2DEG mobility on Al content and thickness of AlGaN barrier layer. The theoretical results are compared with one of the highest measured of 2DEG mobility reported for AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. The 2DEG mobility is modelled as a combined effect of the scat- tering mechanisms including acoustic deformation-potential, piezoelectric, ionized background donor, surface donor, dislocation, alloy disorder and interface roughness scattering. The analyses of the individual scattering processes show that the dominant scattering mechanisms are the alloy disorder scattering and the interface roughness scattering at low temperatures. The variation of 2DEG mobility with the barrier layer parameters results mainly from the change of 2DEG density and distribution. It is suggested that in AlGaN/GaN samples with a high Al content or a thick AlGaN layer, the interface roughness scattering may restrict the 2DEG mobility significantly, for the AlGaN/GaN interface roughness increases due to the stress accumulation in AlGaN layer.     

Recent progress of ZnMgO ultraviolet photodetector

The ultra-violet(UV) detection has a wide application in both civil and military fields.ZnO is recognized as one of ideal materials for fabricating the UV photodetectors due to its plenty of advantages,such as wide bandgap,low cost,being environment-friendly,high radiation hardness,etc.Moreover,the alloying of ZnO with MgO to make ZnMgO could continually increase the band gap from ~ 3.3 eV to ~ 7.8 eV,which allows both solar blind and visible blind UV radiation to be detected.As is well known,ZnO is stabilized in the wurtzite structure,while MgO is stabilized in the rock salt structure.As a result,with increasing the Mg content,the crystal structure of ZnMgO alloy will change from wurtzite structure to rock salt structure.Therefore,ZnMgO photodetectors can be divided into three types based on the structures of alloys,namely,wurtzite-phase,cubic-phase and mixed-phase devices.In this paper,we review recent development and make the prospect of three types of ZnMgO UV photodetectors.     

Highly efficient and low turn-on voltage quantum-dot light-emitting diodes using a ZnMgO/ZnO double electron transport layer

A ZnMgO and ZnO double-layered structure was prepared to create a stepwise interfacial electronic structure to improve the electron-injection and electron-transport behaviors in quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs). The current density of the electron-only device (EOD) with ZnMgO/ZnO was higher than that of the EOD with only ZnMgO. The detailed QLED interfacial electronic structure was measured using X-ray and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. A stepwise interfacial electronic structure for electron injection and electron transport was observed connecting the aluminum cathode to the ZnMgO conduction band minimum (CBM) via the ZnO CBM. The QLEDs with the ZnMgO/ZnO double electron transport layer showed an improved performance, with a maximum luminance and current efficiency of 90,892 cd m⁻² and 19.2 cd A⁻¹, respectively. Moreover, the turn-on voltage of the device was significantly reduced to 2.6 V due to the stepwise interfacial electronic structure between the aluminum cathode and ZnMgO CBM. This research provides a useful method for developing highly efficient and low turn-on voltage QLEDs using a ZnMgO/ZnO double ETL for next-generation display.     

Properties of AlyGa1-yN/AlxGa1-xN/AlN/GaN Double-Barrier High Electron Mobility Transistor Structure

Electrical properties of Al_yGa_1-yN/Al_xGa_1-xN/AlN/GaN structure are investigated by solving coupled Schrödinger and Poisson equation self-consistently. Our calculations show that the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) density will decrease with the thickness of the second barrier (Al_yGa_1-yN) once the AlN content of the second barrier is smaller than a critical value y_c, and will increase with the thickness of the second barrier (Al_yGa_1-yN) when the critical AlN content of the second barrier y_c is exceeded. Our calculations also show that the critical AlN content of the second barrier y_c will increase with the AlN content and the thickness of the first barrier layer (Al_xGa_1-xN).

Effects of GaN cap layer thickness on an AlN/GaN heterostructure

In this study, we investigate the effects of GaN cap layer thickness on the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) electron density and 2DEG electron mobility of AlN/GaN heterostructures by using the temperature-dependent Hall measurement and theoretical fitting method. The results of our analysis clearly indicate that the GaN cap layer thickness of an AlN/GaN heterostructure has influences on the 2DEG electron density and the electron mobility. For the AlN/GaN heterostructures with a 3-nm AlN barrier layer, the optimized thickness of the GaN cap layer is around 4 nm and the strained a-axis lattice constant of the AlN barrier layer is less than that of GaN.
