A Simple Route of Morphology Control and Structural and Optical Properties of ZnO Grown by Metal-Organic Chemical Vapour Deposition

Employing the metal-organic chemical vapour deposition （MOCVD） technique, we prepare ZnO samples with different morphologies from the film to nanorods through conveniently changing the bubbled diethylzinc flux （BDF） and the carrier gas flux of oxygen （OCGF）. The scanning electron microscope images indicate that small BDF and OCGF induce two-dimensional growth while the large ones avail quasi-one-dimensional growth. X-ray diffraction （XRD） and Raman scattering analyses show that all of the morphology-dependent ZnO samples are of high crystal quality with a c-axis orientation. From the precise shifts of the 20 locations of ZnQ （002） face in the XRD patterns and the E2 （high） locations in the Raman spectra, we deduce that the compressive stress forms in the ZnO samples and is strengthened with the increasing BDF and OCGF. Photoluminescence spectroscopy results show all the samples have a sharp ultraviolet luminescent band without any defects-related emission. Upon the experiments a possible growth mechanism is proposed.

Effects of V/III ratio on a-plane GaN epilayers with an InGaN interlayer

The effects of V/Ill growth flux ratio on a-plane GaN films grown on r-plane sapphire substrates with an InGaN interlayer are investigated. The surface morphology, crystalline quality, strain states, and density of basal stacking faults were found to depend heavily upon the V/III ratio. With decreasing V/III ratio, the surface morphology and crystal quality first improved and then deteriorated, and the density of the basal-plane stacking faults also first decreased and then increased. The optimal V/III ratio growth condition for the best surface morphology and crystalline quality and the smallest basal-plane stacking fault density of a-GaN films are found. We also found that the formation of basal-plane stacking faults is an effective way to release strain.     

MOCVD生长温度对氧化锌薄膜结构及发光性能的影响

利用甲醇做氧源,采用金属有机物化学气相沉积(MOCVD)工艺在硅(111)衬底上生长了一系列的氧化锌薄膜,生长温度为400～600 ℃.薄膜的表面形貌及晶体质量分别利用场发射扫描电镜及X射线衍射仪进行了测量.研究表明:随着生长温度的降低,在X射线衍射图谱中氧化锌(101)峰取代了(002)峰成为了主峰.这可能是由于温度过低使得甲醇未完全分解,而甲醇分子抑制了氧化锌沿c轴极性过快的生长所致.室温光致发光光谱结果表明在较高生长温度下获得的样品具有良好的光学性质,发光强度随着温度的降低而降低.     

不同晶面蓝宝石和氧源对ZnO薄膜生长的影响

在c面和r面蓝宝石上用氧气和甲醇作为氧源分别沉积了ZnO薄膜.用X射线双晶衍射(DCXRD)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、原子力显微镜(AFM)对ZnO薄膜综合表征.证实了,面蓝宝石的表面能比c面的小,更有利于增原子的迁移,从而实现ZnO的二维生长.发现甲醇作为氧源生长的薄膜晶体质量跟氧气作为氧源的相比有较大提高,这可能源于预反应的减弱和甲醇的表面活化作用.在r面蓝宝石上用甲醇作为氧源生长出了表面平整的ZnO薄膜,其(1012)面的非对称衍射的摇摆曲线半高宽仅0.10.     

Spacer layer thickness fluctuation scattering in a modulation-doped AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs quantum well

We theoretically study the influence of spacer layer thickness fluctuation（SLTF） on the mobility of a twodimensional electron gas（2DEG） in the modulation-doped Al x Ga 1 x As/GaAs/Al x Ga 1 x As quantum well.The dependence of the mobility limited by SLTF scattering on spacer layer thickness and donor density are obtained.The results show that SLTF scattering is an important scattering mechanism for the quantum well structure with a thick well layer.     

Photoluminescence Investigation of Two-Dimensional Electron Gas in an Undoped AlxGa1-xN／GaN Heterostructure

Low-temperature photoluminescence measurement is performed on an undoped AlxGa1-xN/GaN heterostructure. Temperature-dependent Hall mobility confirms the formation of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) near the heterointerface. A weak photoluminescence (PL) peak with the energy of - 79meV lower than the free exciton (FE) emission of bulk GaN is related to the radiative recombination between electrons confined in the triangular well and the holes near the fiat-band region of GaN. Its identification is supported by the solution of coupled one-dimensional Poisson and Schr6dinger equations. When the temperature increases, the red shift of the 2DEG related emission peak is slower than that of the FE peak. The enhanced screening effect coming from the increasing 2DEG concentration and the varying electron distribution at two lowest subbands as a function of temperature account for such behaviour.
