ZnAl2O4缓冲层对ZnO外延层晶体质量的影响

首次报道了通过引入ZnAl2O4缓冲层,以金属源化学气相外延法(MVPE)生长的ZnO晶体质量明显提高.ZnAl2O4缓冲层是通过对溶胶-凝胶法制备的ZnO薄膜进行高温退火而得到的.用双晶X射线衍射仪(DCXRD)对样品进行了θ-2θ和摇摆曲线测量,在ZnAl2O4缓冲层上生长的ZnO厚膜具有高度的择优取向性和良好的晶体质量(摇摆曲线半高宽为342").用电子扫描显微镜(SEM)观察样品横截面,并测得样品厚度约为10μm.     

Stress Analysis of ZnO Film with a GaN Buffer Layer on Sapphire Substrate

A 5.35-μm-thick ZnO film is grown by chemical vapour deposition technique on a sapphire （0001） substrate with a GaN buffer layer. The surface of the ZnO film is smooth and shows many hexagonal features. The full width at half maximum of ZnO （0002） u-rocking curve is 161 arcsec, corresponding to a high crystal quality of the ZnO film. From the result of x-ray diffraction 0 - 20 scanning, the stress status in ZnO film is tensile, which is supported by Raman scattering measurement. The reason of the tensile stress in the ZnO film is analysed in detail. The lattice mismatch and thermal mismatch are excluded and the reason is attributed to the coalescence of grains or islands during the growth of the ZnO film.
