使用溅射AlN成核层实现大规模生产深紫外LED

高质量AlN薄膜对制造高性能深紫外器件非常重要,但是目前还很难使用大型工业MOCVD生长出高质量的AlN薄膜.采用磁控溅射制备了不同厚度的用作成核层的AlN薄膜,使用大型工业MOCVD直接在成核层上高温生长AlN外延层,研究了不同成核层对AlN外延层质量的影响.通过扫描电子显微镜和原子力显微镜对成核层AlN薄膜的表面形貌进行表征;使用高分辨X射线衍射仪对AlN外延层晶体质量进行表征,结果表明:在溅射成核层上生长的AlN外延层的晶体质量有显著提高.使用大型工业MOCVD在蓝宝石衬底上成功制备出中心波长为282 nm的可商用深紫外LED,在注入电流为20 mA时,单颗深紫外LED芯片的光输出功率达到了1.65 mW,对应的外量子效率为1.87%,饱和光输出功率达到4.31 mW.

InAIN薄膜MOCVD外延生长研究

为了研究不同压力和不同模板对InAlN薄膜外延生长的影响,分别选取以GaN为模板时生长压力为4.00、6.67和13.33 kPa,压力为4.00 kPa时模板为GaN和A1N这两组条件进行实验比较.研究发现,随着生长压力的增加,样品中In含量降低,样品的粗糙度则随压力的增加而增大;压力为4.00 kPa时,分别以摇摆曲线半高宽(FWHM)为86.97”的AIN和224.1”的GaN为模板,发现A1N模板上生长的InAIN样品(002)和(102)峰的FWHM值及表面粗糙度比上述GaN为模板生长的InAlN样品都要小很多.综合以上结果可初步得知:降低压力可以优化InAlN薄膜的表面形貌,增加In组分含量;采用高质量的AIN作模板能生长出晶体质量和表面形貌都比较好的InAlN薄膜.     

Improvement of the efficiency droop of GaN-LEDs using an AlGaN/GaN superlattice insertion layer

With an n-AlGaN(4 nm)/GaN(4 nm) superlattice(SL) inserted between an n-GaN and an InGaN/GaN multiquantum well active layer,the efficiency droop of GaN-based LEDs has been improved.When the injection current is lower than 100 mA,the lumen efficiency of the LED with an n-AlGaN/GaN SL is relatively small compared to that without an n-AlGaN/GaN SL.However,as the injection current increases more than 100 mA,the lumen efficiency of the LED with an n-AlGaN/GaN SL surpasses that of an LED without an n-AlGaN/GaN SL. The wall plug efficiency of an LED has the same trend as lumen efficiency.The improvement of the efficiency droop of LEDs with n-AlGaN/GaN SLs can be attributed to a decrease in electron leakage due to the enhanced current spreading ability and electron blocking effect at high current densities.The reverse current of LEDs at -5 V reverse voltage decreases from 0.2568029 to 0.0070543μA,and the electro-static discharge(ESD) pass yield of an LED at human body mode(HBM)-ESD impulses of 2000 V increases from 60%to 90%.     

插入n-AlGaN/GaN超晶格改善GaN基LED的droop效应

在GaN基LED的n-GaN和InGaN/GaN发光区之间插入n-AlGaN/GaN超晶格来改善其droop效应。注入电流低于100mA时,插入n-AlGaN/GaN超晶格的LED的流明效率低于没有插入层的LED。注入电流高于100mA时,插入n-AlGaN/GaN超晶格的LED的流明效率高于没有插入层的LED。插入n-AlGaN/GaN超晶格后,GaN基LED在-5V的反向电压下,漏电由2.568029μA减少到0.070543μA。人体模式下,插入n-AlGaN/GaN超晶格的LED在2000V的静电电压下的通过率从60%提高到了90%。LED droop效应的改善是因为n-AlGaN/GaN超晶格过滤了穿透位错并改善了电流扩展能力。     

Ⅲ-Ⅴ化合物的范德华外延生长与应用

Ⅲ-Ⅴ化合物半导体材料体系带隙涵盖范围广、载流子迁移率高,非常适宜用来制备发光二极管、激光器、高电子迁移率晶体管等光电子器件。在异质衬底上进行Ⅲ-Ⅴ化合物的共价外延时,只有外延层与衬底层间的晶格失配度较小时才能获得高质量外延层,而范德华外延已被证实可以有效放宽外延层与衬底层间晶格失配与热失配要求,有利于外延层的应力释放与质量提高,同时也易于外延层从衬底上剥离转移,为制备Ⅲ-Ⅴ化合物基新型光电子器件提供了便利。本文对二维(2D)材料、Ⅲ-Ⅴ化合物在石墨烯上的范德华外延过程以及使用范德华外延制备的Ⅲ-N基光电子器件的各项研究进行了讨论分析,并对其前景进行了展望。     

Effect of Stress in GaN/AIInGaN Grown on GaN Templates with Different Stress States

We clarify the effect of the stress in GaN templates on the subsequent AIlnGaN deposition by simply growing 150nm AIInGaN on a 30μm GaN template （sample 1） prepared by hydride vapor phase epitaxy and a 2.3μm thin control GaN template （sample 2） prepared by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. X-ray diffraction and secondary iron mass spectroscopy measurements reveal the stress states （tensile stress and full relaxed for samples 1 and 2, respectively） and compositions （Al0.169In0.01 Ga0.821N, Al0.171In0.006 Ga0.823N for samples 1 and 2, respectively） of AlInGaN. By carefully eliminating other possible factor, as template surface roughness, it is concluded that different stress states of AlInGaN should stem from different stress states of GaN templates.

Improvement of carrier distribution in dual wavelength light-emitting diodes

The effect of different barriers between green and blue light regions in dual wavelength light emitting diodes was studied.Compared with a traditional sample,electroluminescence and photoluminescence spectra of the newly designed samples showed peak intensity improvements and smaller blue-shifts with increasing injection current level,and the bottom quantum-wells light emitting is enhanced.All these phenomena can be ascribed to reduced barrier thickness and indium doping in the quantum-barrier influencing electric fields and more holes injecting into the bottom QWs.
