使用SiNx原位淀积方法生长的GaN外延膜中的应力研究

采用低压MOCVD系统，在生长过程中使用SiN_x原位淀积的方法产生纳米掩模，并 在纳米掩模上进行选区生长和侧向外延制备了GaN外延薄膜.使用拉曼光谱和光荧光的手段对 GaN外延膜中的残余应力进行了研究.研究发现，用SiN_x原位淀积出纳米掩模后 ，GaN生长将由二维向三维转变，直到完全合并为止.利用拉曼光谱和光荧光谱分别研究了薄 膜中的残余应力，两者符合得很好；这种方法生长出的GaN薄膜的应力分布较传统的侧向外 延更加均匀；并且从中发现随着生长过程中SiN_x原位淀积时间的增加，生长在 其上的GaN外延膜中的残余应力减小.这是因为，随着SiN_x原位淀积时间的增加 ，SiN_x纳米掩模的覆盖度也增大.因此侧向外延区的比例增大，残余应力随之减 小. 关键词： GaN x原位淀积')" href="#">SiN_x原位淀积 拉曼 光荧光 残余应力

氢化物气相外延生长的GaN膜中的应力分析

对在c面蓝宝石上用氢化物气相外延法(HVPE)生长的六方相纤锌矿结构的GaN膜中的应力进行了分析。高分辨X射线衍射(002)面和(102)面摇摆曲线扫描(半高宽数值分别为317和358角秒)表明生长的GaN膜具有较好的晶体质量。利用高分辨X射线衍射技术准确测量了制备的GaN膜的晶格常数,并计算得到GaN膜中面内双轴应变和面外双轴应变分别为3.37×10-4和-8.52×10-4,等静压应变为-7.61×10-5。拉曼光谱和激光光致发光谱测试表明HVPE-GaN外延膜具有较好的光学特性,利用拉曼光谱的E₂模式特征峰和激光光致发光谱中近带边发射峰的频移定量计算了外延膜中的面内双轴压应力和等静压应力。两种方法得到的面内双轴压应力较为相符。     

GaN和GaN:Mg外延膜低温拉曼谱的对比研究

对液氮温度下六方相GaN和掺Mg的P型GaN薄膜的拉曼谱进行了对比研究。除对两个样品中主晶格振动模进行了对比分析外,着重讨论了位于247 cm-1的散射峰的产生机制。结果表明GaN:Mg的谱中该峰的散射强度随温度升高先增大再减小,在500K以上消失且对样品重新降温到78K观察此峰不再出现,因此认为它是缺陷产生的振动模。而GaN样品中经同样加热降温的过程此峰仍然存在,说明两个样品中该峰的产生机制不同。此外,在GaN:Mg的谱中还观察到Mg诱导的局域振动模。

淀积在不同小倾角蓝宝石衬底的n型GaN的研究

采用金属有机物化学淀积技术在不同倾角（0°—03°）的蓝宝石衬底上外延n型GaN.通过原子力显微镜观察到n型GaN均呈台阶流生长模式,02°和03°倾角衬底的n型GaN表面台阶朝向相同、分布均匀,明显地看到在0°倾角衬底的n型GaN表面由台阶重构直接导致的台阶朝向随机分布、疏密不匀的形貌.电子背散射分析表明,在0°倾角衬底的n型GaN外延层的应力随外延厚度增加而增加,而02°和03°倾角衬底的n型GaN外延层的应力没有明显的变化.电学和光学特性研究表明,02°和03°倾角衬底的n型GaN有较高的电子浓度和较低的黄光带与近带边强度之比. 关键词： 金属有机物化学淀积 氮化物 原子力显微镜 光致发光

EBIC investigations of GaN layers prepared by epitaxial lateral overgrowth

GaN films prepared by lateral overgrowth are investigated by scanning electron microscopy in the electron beam induced current (EBIC) mode. A comparison of experimental and simulated dependences of induced current on beam energy has allowed us to determine not only the diffusion length, but also the donor concentration in different areas of a film. It has been found that the donor distribution is inhomogeneous and this inhomogeneity increases under fast neutron irradiation. This is indicative of the significant influence of structural defects on the rate of radiation defect accumulation. An anomalously slow signal decay outside the Schottky barrier has been found, which can be determined by charged defects formed at the merger boundary.     

Ultraviolet emission of ZnO film prepared by electrophoretic deposition

We deposited high quality ZnO film by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) using high quality ZnO powder prepared by solid-state pyrolytic reaction. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and the infrared (IR) absorption spectrum clearly indicate that the ZnO phase powder has been prepared. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) imaging and x-ray diffraction (XRD) show that the average grain size of the powder is about 20nm. XRD and selected-area electron diffraction (SAED) reveal that the ZnO film has a polycrystalline hexagonal wurtzite structure. Only a strong ultraviolet emission peak at 390nm can be observed at room temperature.     

Characterization of epitaxial lanthanum lutetium oxide thin films prepared by pulsed-laser deposition

Epitaxial thin films of LaLuO₃ were deposited on SrTiO₃(100) and SrRuO₃/SrTiO₃(100) or SrRuO₃/LaAlO₃(100) substrates using pulsed-laser deposition. They were investigated by means of Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Smooth, c-axis oriented films with a channeling minimum yield of 3% were obtained. The electrical characterization of Au/LaLuO₃/SrRuO₃/SrTiO₃(100) and Au/LaLuO₃/SrRuO₃/LaAlO₃(100) metal–insulator–metal capacitor stacks revealed a dielectric constant of κ>45 and a breakdown field of 2 MV/cm for 100 nm thick epitaxial LaLuO₃ films.

Chalcogenide-based thin film sensors prepared by pulsed laser deposition technique

One advantage of the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method is the stoichiometric transfer of multi-component target material to a given substrate. This advantage of the PLD determined the choice to prepare chalco-genide-based thin films with an off-axis geometry PLD. Ag-As-S and Cu-Ag-As-Se-Tetargets were used to deposit thin films on Si substrates for an application as a heavy metal sensing device. The films were characterized by means of Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and electrochemical measurements. The same stoichiometry of the films and the targets was confirmed by RBS measurements. We observed a good long-term stability of more than 60 days and a nearly Nernstian sensitivity towards Pb and Cu, which is comparable to bulk sensors.

Residual compressive stress and intensity of infrared absorption of cubic BN films prepared by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition

Theoretical and experimental investigations on the dependence of the intensity of infrared （IR） absorption of poly- crystalline cubic boron nitride thin films under the residual compressive stress conditions have been performed. Our results indicate that the intensity of the IR absorption is proportional to the total degree of freedom of all the ions in the ordered regions. The reduction of interstitial Ar atom concentration, which causes the increase in the ordered regions of cubic boron nitride （cBN） crystallites, could be one cause for the increase in the intensity of IR absorption after residual compressive stress relaxation. Theoretical derivation is in good agreement with the experimental results concerning the IR absorption intensity and the Ar interstitial atom concentration in cubic boron nitride films measured by energy dispersion X-ray spec- troscopy. Our results also suggest that the interstitial Ar is the origin of residual compressive stress accumulation in plasma enhanced cBN film deposition.
