Synthesis and Growth Mechanism： A Novel Fishing Rod-Shaped GaN Nanorods

A novel fishing rod-shaped GaN nanorod is successfully fabricated through a new method by using the two-step growth technology. This growth method is applicable to continuous synthesis and is able to produce a large number of single-crystalline GaN nanorods with a relatively high purity and at a low cost. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy are used to characterize the as- synthesized nanorods. The results show that most of the nanorods consist of a main rod and a top curved thread. It is single-crystal GaN with hexagonal wurtzite structure. The representative photoluminescence spectrum at room temperature exhibits a strong UV light emission band centered at 370.8nm. Furthermore, a possible two-stage growth mechanism of the fishing rod-shaped GaN nanorod is also briefly discussed.     

InN薄膜的氧化特性研究

研究了InN薄膜在不同氧气氛中的氧化特性. 研究表明，在400 ℃以下，InN薄膜很难被氧化，而金属In很容易被氧化. 因此富In的InN薄膜的氧化在400 ℃以下主要是金属In的氧化，在400 ℃以上为金属In和InN的同时被氧化. 在400 ℃以上的氧化过程中，InN的表观氧化速率非常慢，这可能和InN的高温分解有关. InN的湿氧和干氧氧化结果说明湿氧氧化速率比干氧快. 关键词： InN 氧化铟 氧化 X射线衍射

非晶氧化锆水合物红外研究

用红外吸收光谱（IR）结合X射线衍射（XRD）、差热（DTA）和热失重分析（TG）详细研究了氧化锆前驱物（溶胶凝胶法制得的非晶态氧化锆水合物）的结构。实验结果表明在非晶态氧化锆水合物中有三种不同的近程结构。它表现为不同条件下制得的非晶氧化锆水合物的红外吸收谱在1700～1200cm-1水和羟基的弯曲振动吸收区出现1633、1551、1400和1340cm-1四个不同的羟基吸收峰。这表明样品中有三种不同近邻结构的羟基。根据实验结果我们提出了相应的非晶氧化锆水合物的近邻结构模型。造成这种结构差异的原因是制备过程中溶胶-凝胶反应的羟基浓度的不同。非晶态氧化锆水合物晶化后生成具有不同晶体结构的纳米氧化锆的主要原因是由于它们的不同近邻结构。     

Si(110)和Si(111)衬底上制备InGaN/GaN蓝光发光二极管

分别在Si(110)和Si(111)衬底上制备了In Ga N/Ga N多量子阱结构蓝光发光二极管(LED)器件.利用高分辨X射线衍射、原子力显微镜、室温拉曼光谱和变温光致发光谱对生长的LED结构进行了结构表征.结果表明,相对于Si(111)上生长LED样品,Si(110)上生长的LED结构晶体质量较好,样品中存在较小的张应力,具有较高的内量子效率.对制备的LED芯片进行光电特性分析测试表明,两种衬底上制备的LED芯片等效串联电阻相差不大,在大电流注入下内量子效率下降较小;但是,相比于Si(111)上制备LED芯片,Si(110)上LED芯片具有较小的开启电压和更优异的发光特性.对LED器件电致发光(EL)发光峰随驱动电流的变化研究发现,由于Si(110)衬底上LED结构中阱层和垒层存在较小的应力/应变而在器件中产生较弱的量子限制斯塔克效应,致使Si(110)上LED芯片EL发光峰随驱动电流的蓝移量更小.     

Analysis of Local Structures around Ni Atoms Doped in ZnO-Based Diluted Magnetic Semiconductors by Fluorescence EXAFS

Zn1-xNixO （x = 0.001, 0.01, 0.02, 0.05 and 0.20） powders are prepared by sol-gel method. An extended x-ray absorption fine structure technique （EXAFS） for the Ni K.edge is employed to probe the local structures around Ni atoms doped in ZnO powders by fluorescence mode. The near edge EXAFS of the samples does not change in the range of Ni concentration from x = 0.001 to 0.05, which is consistent with the results of x-ray diffraction of the samples. The simulation results for the first shell EXAFS signals indicated that Ni atoms are substituted in Zn sites.

High-efficiency InGaN/AlInGaN multiple quantum wells with lattice-matched AlInGaN superlattices barrier

A new approach to fabricating high-quality AlInGaN film as a lattice-matched barrier layer in multiple quantum wells(MQWs) is presented. The high-quality AlInGaN film is realized by growing the AlGaN/InGaN short period superlattices through metalorganic chemical vapor deposition, and then being used as a barrier in the MQWs. The crystalline quality of the MQWs with the lattice-matched AlInGaN barrier and that of the conventional InGaN/GaN MQWs are characterized by x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The photoluminescence(PL) properties of the InGaN/AlInGa N MQWs are investigated by varying the excitation power density and temperature through comparing with those of the InGaN/GaN MQWs. The integral PL intensity of InGaN/AlInGaN MQWs is over 3 times higher than that of InGaN/GaN MQWs at room temperature under the highest excitation power. Temperature-dependent PL further demonstrates that the internal quantum efficiency of InGaN/AlInGaN MQWs(76.1%) is much higher than that of InGaN/GaN MQWs(21%).The improved luminescence performance of InGaN/AlInGaN MQWs can be attributed to the distinct reduction of the barrier-well lattice mismatch and the strain-induced non-radiative recombination centers.     

Comparison study of GaN films grown on porous and planar GaN templates

The GaN thick films have been grown on porous GaN template and planar metal-organic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD)-GaN template by halide vapor phase epitaxy(HVPE). The analysis results indicated that the GaN films grown on porous and planar GaN templates under the same growth conditions have similar structural, optical, and electrical properties. But the porous GaN templates could significantly reduce the stress in the HVPE-GaN epilayer and enhance the photoluminescence(PL) intensity. The voids in the porous template were critical for the strain relaxation in the GaN films and the increase of the PL intensity. Thus, the porous GaN converted from β-Ga2O3 film as a novel promising template is suitable for the growth of stress-free GaN films.
