Thermodynamic analysis of Si doping in GaN

Equilibrium calculations of Si-doping in GaN are investigated using the Gemini code. The method of the calculation is based on the minimisation of the Gibbs free energy. Experimental growth conditions are used for the calculation. The variables are the amount of the dopant and the temperature. The results show the formation of a solid Si₃N₄ compound with a certain quantity of the input SiH₄, that is the silicon precursor in our MOVPE system. Si₃N₄ formation can explain the limitation of Si incorporation and the surface roughening as revealed by MOVPE Si doped layers.     

ITON Schottky contacts for GaN based UV photodetectors

Lateral Schottky ultraviolet detectors were fabricated in GaN using indium-tin-oxynitride (ITON) as a contact metal. The GaN semiconductor material was grown on 2 in. sapphire substrate by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The Schottky contact has been realized using ITON that has been deposited using sputter techniques. I-V characteristics have been measured with and without UV illumination. The device shows photo-to-dark current ratios of 10³ at −1 V bias. The spectral responsivity of the UV detectors has been determined. The high spectral responsivity of more than 30 A/W at 240 nm is explained by a high internal gain caused by generation-recombination centers at the ITON/GaN interface. Persistent photocurrent effect has been observed in UV light (on-off) switching operation, time constant and electron capture coefficient of the transition has been determined.

94K低温下和室温下GaN基MSM紫外光探测器性能的比较

在采用MOCVD技术生长的GaN膜上制备出MSM紫外光探测器，分别在室温下和94K低温下，测量了探测器对不同光波长的响应、同一光波长下对不同偏压的响应、不同斩波频率下的响应。结果表明，在94K下响应有了很大的改善。当光波长从360nm增加到450nm时，响应下降了3个数量级，而常温下只下降两个数量级，但探测器的时间响应常数变长了。     

掺铕GaN薄膜的Raman散射研究

采用金属有机物化学气相沉积（MOCVD）和离子注入的方法制备了掺铕GaN薄膜。利用Raman散射技术研究薄膜的晶格振动，从而确定离子注入引进的晶格损伤变化情况。结果表明，Eu离子注入剂量越大，对晶格的损伤越严重；Eu离子注入的能量越高，对晶格的损伤也越严重；采用沟道注入方法可以有效地减小对晶体的损伤。离子注入后进行高温退火，可以使晶格中的Ga空位引起的缺陷得到有效的恢复。而N空位引起的缺陷随着退火温度的升高先减少后增多。不同几何配置的Raman谱研究表明，1000℃的高温退火导致了GaN的分解。     

SiC衬底上异质外延GaN薄膜结构缺陷对黄光辐射的影响

利用光致发光技术对在SiC衬底上采用MOCVD异质外延未故意掺杂的GaN进行发光特性的研究,发现在室温下有很强的黄光输出,同时,采用扫描电子显微术和X光衍射对样品的表面形貌和结构进行了研究,结果发现,随着缺陷密度的减少,黄光输出强度也有所降低,因此,黄光输出强度与缺陷有很大的关系.     

Theoretical study on structures of Ga3N, GaN3, Ga3N2 and Ga2N3 clusters

The structures of Ga_3N, GaN_3, Ga_3N_2 and Ga_2N_3 clusters are studied using the full-potential linear-muffin-tin-orbital molecular dynamics (FP-LMTO MD) method. Four structures for Ga_3 N, five structures for GaN_3, nine structures for Ga_3N_2 and nine structures for Ga_2N_3 have been obtained. The most stable structures of these clusters are planar ones. A strong dominance of the N－-N bond over the Ga－-N and Ga－-Ga bonds appears to control the structural skeletons, supporting the previous result obtained by Kandalam and co-workers. The most stable structures of these small GaN clusters displayed semiconductor-like properties through the calculation of the HOMO－LUMO gaps.
