GaN epifilms are grown on the patterned sapphire substrates (PSS) (0001) and the conventional sapphire substrates (CSS) (0001) by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) using a novel two-step growth. High resolution X-ray diffraction (HR-XRD) is used to investigate the threading dislocation (TD) density of the GaN epifilms. The TD density is calculated from the ω-scans full width at half maximum (FWHM) results of HR-XRD. The edge dislocation destiny of GaN grown on the PSS is 2.7×108 cm-2, which is less than on the CSS. This is confirmed by the results of atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurement. The lower TD destiny indicates that the crystalline quality of the GaN epifilms grown on the PSS is improved compared to GaN epifilms grown on the CSS. The residual strains of GaN grown on the PSS and CSS are compared by Raman Scattering spectra. It is clearly seen that the residual strain in the GaN grown on PSS is lower than on the CSS. 相似文献

In this paper we propose a new method for measuring the thickness of the GaN epilayer, by using the ratio of the integrated intensity of the GaN epilayer X-ray diffraction peaks to that of the sapphire substrate ones. This ratio shows a linear dependence on the GaN epilayer thickness up to 2 μm. The new method is more accurate and convenient than those of using the relationship between the integrated intensity of GaN epilayer diffraction peaks and the GaN thickness. Besides, it can eliminate the absorption effect of the GaN epilayer. 相似文献

Two-and three-crystal diffractometric study of the structural perfection of GaN epitaxial films grown on sapphire, GaAs, and
SiC substrates is reported. The diffraction intensity distributions around the reciprocal-lattice points are shown to be extended
in the direction parallel to the surface, which is connected with the anisotropy of the local strain fields in the layers.
A comprehensive analysis is made of the broadening for several reflection orders measured in three geometries, namely, Bragg,
symmetric Laue, and grazing-angle diffraction. The five independent components of the microdistorsion tensor δe

High temperature GaN layers have been grown on Si (1 1 1) substrate by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE). AlN was used as a buffer layer and studied as a function of thickness and growth temperature. The growth was monitored by in situ laser reflectometry. High resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD) revealed that optimized monocrystalline GaN was obtained for a 40 nm AlN grown at 1080 °C. This is in good agreement with the results of morphological study by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and also confirmed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) observations. The best morphology of AlN with columnar structure and lower rms surface roughness is greatly advantageous to the coalescence of the GaN epilayer. Symmetric and asymmetric GaN reflections were combined for twist and stress measurements in monocrystalline GaN. It was found that mosaicity and biaxial tensile stress are still high in 1.7 μm GaN. Curvature radius measurement was also done and correlated to the cracks observations over the GaN surface. 相似文献

The adsorption characteristics of Cs on GaN (0001) and GaN (0001) surfaces with a coverage from 1/4 to 1 monolayer have been investigated using the density functional theory with a plane-wave uttrasoft pseudopotential method based on first-principles calculations. The results show that the most stable position of the Cs adatom on the GaN (0001) surface is at the N-bridge site for 1/4 monolayer coverage. As the coverage of Cs atoms at the N-bridge site is increased, the adsorption energy reduces. As the Cs atoms achieve saturation, the adsorption is no longer stable when the coverage is 3/4 monolayer. The work function achieves its minimum value when the Cs adatom coverage is 2/4 monolayer, and then rises with Cs atomic coverage. The most stable position of Cs adatoms on the GaN (000i) surface is at H3 site for 1/4 monolayer coverage. As the Cs atomic coverage at H3 site is increased, the adsorption energy reduces, and the adsorption is still stable when the Cs adatom coverage is 1 monolayer. The work function reduces persistently, and does not rise with the increase of Cs coverage. 相似文献

侧向外延(EL0)GaN的原子力显微镜(AFM)表面形貌图像表明,ELO—GaN相当平整,而掩膜区中央有线状分布的小丘群,这是由ELO—GaN在掩膜区中央接合时晶向不一致而产生的缺陷造成的。观察ELO—GaN扫描电子显微镜(SEM)截面图,侧向接合处存在着三角空洞,并且侧向接合导致上述小丘群。X射线衍射(XRD)曲线表明,掩膜边界处的GaN晶面有倾斜。拉曼散射谱表明,掩膜区GaN质量相对于窗口区大为提高。ELO—GaN和普通外延GaN的拉曼散射谱比较表明,ELO—GaN中的应力较小,晶体质量较高。 相似文献

AlGaN layers with Al content varying over the whole range of compositions were grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on n-6H-SiC
substrates. The band gap energy is obtained from the vanishing of Fabry–Pérot oscillations in a fit to optical reflection
spectra near the band gap absorption edge. The surface potential was determined by in-situ X-ray photoemission spectroscopy
(XPS) and is found to increase as a function of the Al content from (0.5±0.1) eV to (1.3±0.1) eV, from GaN to AlN. A Si3N4 thin passivation layer was formed in-situ onto a 2DEG AlGaN/GaN structure. The mechanism underlying the passivation of high
electron mobility transistor (HEMT) structures is suggested to be based on the formation of interface states, which keep the
Fermi level fixed at a position close to that of the free AlGaN surface.

Comparative study of high and low temperature AlN
interlayers and their roles in the properties of GaN epilayers
prepared by means of metal organic chemical vapour deposition on
(0001) plane sapphire substrates is carried out by high resolution
x-ray diffraction, photoluminescence and Raman spectroscopy. It is
found that the crystalline quality of GaN epilayers is improved
significantly by using the high temperature AlN interlayers, which
prevent the threading dislocations from extending, especially for
the edge type dislocation. The analysis results based on
photoluminescence and Raman measurements demonstrate that there
exist more compressive stress in GaN epilayers with high temperature
AlN interlayers. The band edge emission energy increases from
3.423~eV to 3.438~eV and the frequency of Raman shift of $E_{2
}$(TO) moves from 571.3~cm$^{ - 1}$ to 572.9~cm$^{ - 1}$ when the
temperature of AlN interlayers increases from 700~$^{\circ}$C to
1050~$^{\circ}$C. It is believed that the temperature of AlN
interlayers effectively determines the size, the density and the
coalescence rate of the islands, and the high temperature AlN
interlayers provide large size and low density islands for GaN
epilayer growth and the threading dislocations are bent and
interactive easily. Due to the threading dislocation reduction in
GaN epilayers with high temperature AlN interlayers, the approaches
of strain relaxation reduce drastically, and thus the compressive
stress in GaN epilayers with high temperature AlN interlayers is
high compared with that in GaN epilayers with low temperature AlN
interlayers. 相似文献

We have estimated the threading dislocation density and type via X-ray diffraction and Williamson-Hall analysis to elicit qualitative information directly related to the electrical and optical quality of GaN epitaxial layers grown by PAMBE on 4H- and 6H-SiC substrates. The substrate surface preparation and buffer choice, specifically: Ga flashing for SiC oxide removal, controlled nitridation of SiC, and use of AlN buffer layers all impact the resultant screw dislocation density, but do not significantly influence the edge dislocation density. We show that modification of the substrate surface strongly affects the screw dislocation density, presumably due to impact on nucleation during the initial stages of heteroepitaxy. 相似文献

The analysis of threading dislocation density(TDD)in Ge-on-Si layer is critical for developing lasers,light emitting diodes(LEDs),photodetectors(PDs),modulators,waveguides,metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors(MOS-FETs),and also the integration of Si-based monolithic photonics.The TDD of Ge epitaxial layer is analyzed by etching or transmission electron microscope(TEM).However,high-resolution x-ray diffraction(HR-XRD)rocking curve provides an optional method to analyze the TDD in Ge layer.The theory model of TDD measurement from rocking curves was first used in zinc-blende semiconductors.In this paper,this method is extended to the case of strained Ge-on-Si layers.The HR-XRD 2θ/ωscan is measured and Ge(004)single crystal rocking curve is utilized to calculate the TDD in strained Ge epitaxial layer.The rocking curve full width at half maximum(FWHM)broadening by incident beam divergence of the instrument,crystal size,and curvature of the crystal specimen is subtracted.The TDDs of samples A and B are calculated to be 1.41×10~8cm~(-2)and 6.47×10~8cm~(-2),respectively.In addition,we believe the TDDs calculated by this method to be the averaged dislocation density in the Ge epitaxial layer. 相似文献

We have studied optical properties of nonpolar a-plane GaN layers grown on r-plane sapphire by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition and hydride vapor phase epitaxy using different nucleation schemes. Several emission bands, which are not typical for c-plane GaN, are observed in the photoluminescence spectra and their excitation-intensity, temperature, and polarization dependencies are examined. In addition, the spatial distribution of the emissions was examined by cathodoluminescence imaging and relations of the different emissions with particular structural features in the layers are revealed. The results are discussed with emphasis on the origin of the emission line and particular recombination mechanisms. 相似文献

GaN quantum dots (QDs) are realized on (0001) AlN templates by growing a thin GaN layer on an AlN buffer layer and applying a subsequent desorption step without ammonia present. A growth interruption (GRI), which is commonly applied after the GaN growth allowing for QD formation, is systematically investigated regarding the temperature, duration and initial GaN coverage. Without GRI the initial GaN layer exhibits a two‐dimensional nonuniform growth at the step edges. In this study, the surface morphology only changes significantly if the GRI is performed without ammonia exposure. Thus, an initial two‐dimensional GaN layer can be shaped into three‐dimensional nanostructures. Presented coverage studies by atomic force microscopy (AFM) show desorption as the main driving force for island evolution. By tailoring the growth parameters, GaN QDs can be achieved. Uncapped GaN samples exhibit QDs with 1.2 nm in height and 30 nm in diameter. Additionally, capped GaN QDs exhibit excitonic luminescence lines at about 4.3 eV with FWHM down to 2 meV and an excitonic fine structure splitting of 7 meV. (© 2015 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH &Co.

Strain relaxation in a GaInN/GaN heterostructure is analyzed by combining in situ X‐ray diffraction (XRD) monitoring and ex situ observations. Two different characteristic thicknesses of GaInN films are defined by the evolution of in situ XRD from the full width at half‐maximum of symmetric (0002) diffraction as a function of GaInN thickness. This in situ XRD measurement enables to clearly observe the critical thicknesses corresponding to strain relaxation in the GaInN/GaN heterostructure caused by the formation of surface pits with bent threading dislocations and the generation of misfit dislocations on GaInN during growth.

Two-dimensional growth of GaN thin films on an atomically flat C-face 6H-SiC(0001) surface prepared by ultra-high vacuum Si-etching is observed when using an AlN buffer layer in N plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Scanning tunneling microscopy and reflection high energy electron diffraction observations reveal a series of Ga-stabilized reconstructions which are consistent with those reported for an N-polar GaN(0001) film. The result, including the effect observed previously for GaN thin film on Si-terminated 6H-SiC(0001), agrees with the polarity assignment of heteroepitaxial wurtzite GaN films on polar 6H-SiC substrates, i.e., GaN film grown on SiC(0001) is <0001> oriented (N-face) while that on SiC(0001) is <0001> oriented (Ga-face). 相似文献
