Abstract: | This paper reports that cathodoluminescence (CL) measurements
have been done to study the alloy fluctuation of the
Al$_{0.3}$Ga$_{0.7}$N layer in Al$_{0.3}$Ga$_{0.7}$N/GaN
heterostructures. The CL images and linescanning results demonstrate
the existence of compositional fluctuation of Al in
the Al$_{0.3}$Ga$_{0.7}$N barrier. A model using a $\delta $-shape
perturbation Hamilton function has been proposed to simulate the
scattering probability of the two dimensional electron gases (2DEG)
induced by Al composition fluctuation. Two factors, including
conduction band fluctuation and polarization electric field
variation, induced by the Al composition fluctuation have been taken
into account. The scattering relaxation time induced by both factors
has been estimated to be 0.31~ns and 0.0078~ns, respectively,
indicating that the variation of the piezoelectric field is dominant
in the scattering of the 2DEG induced by Al fluctuation. |
