Reaction mechanism for the ammonolysis of ^|^beta;-gallium oxide to gallium nitride

Gallium Nitride Photoconductive Detectors

Since 1994, the Applied Physics Laboratory has been collaborating with NASA Goddard Space Flight Center to develop photodetectors based on gallium nitride and aluminum gallium nitride material produced in the Milton S. Eisenhower Research and Technology Development Center. This article describes the results of our collaboration and highlights the development of gallium nitride photodetectors wi...

Synthesis of gallium nitride nanostructures by nitridation of electrochemically deposited gallium oxide on silicon substrate

Gallium nitride (GaN) nanostructures were successfully synthesized by the nitridation of the electrochemically deposited gallium oxide (Ga2O3) through the utilization of a so-called ammoniating process. Ga2O3 nanostructures were firstly deposited on Si substrate by a simple two-terminal electrochemical technique at a constant current density of 0.15 A/cm(2) using a mixture of Ga2O3, HCl, NH4OH ...

Green Method for Synthesizing Gallium Nitride Nanostructures at Low Temperature

Gallium nitride (GaN) nanostructures (NS) were synthesized using pulseddirect current plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PDC-PECVD) on quartzsubstrate at low temperature (600°C). Gallium metal (Ga) and nitrogen (N) plasma wereused as precursors. The morphology and structure of the grown GaN NS werecharacterized by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), transmissionelectro...

Development of Gallium Nitride Substrates

Prominent progress has been made in nitride semiconductor since high bright blue LED has developed in 1993. It has also expanded to an industry after applied to white LED. These LEDs are produced by the epitaxial growth of nitride semiconductor layers on sapphire (a Al2O3) substrate. On the other hand, recording density in optical disks has increased from CD in 1980s to DVD in latter 1990s. Las...
