III-Nitride grating grown on freestanding HfO2 gratings
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report here the epitaxial growth of III-nitride material on freestanding HfO2 gratings by molecular beam epitaxy. Freestanding HfO2 gratings are fabricated by combining film evaporation, electron beam lithography, and fast atom beam etching of an HfO2 film by a front-side silicon process. The 60-μm long HfO2 grating beam can sustain the stress change during the epitaxial growth of a III-nitride material. Grating structures locally change the growth condition and vary indium composition in the InGaN/GaN quantum wells and thus, the photoluminescence spectra of epitaxial III-nitride grating are tuned. Guided mode resonances are experimentally demonstrated in fabricated III-nitride gratings, opening the possibility to achieve the interaction between the excited light and the grating structure through guided mode resonance.PACS: 78.55.Cr; 81.65.Cf; 81.15.Hi.

Freestanding HfO2 grating fabricated by fast atom beam etching
We report here the fabrication of freestanding HfO2 grating by combining fast atom beam etching (FAB) of HfO2 film with dry etching of silicon substrate. HfO2 film is deposited onto silicon substrate by electron beam evaporator. The grating patterns are then defined by electron beam lithography and transferred to HfO2 film by FAB etching. The silicon substrate beneath the HfO2 grating region is...

We report here the epitaxial growth of InGaN/GaN quantum wells on freestanding GaN gratings by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Various GaN gratings are defined by electron beam lithography and realized on GaN-on-silicon substrate by fast atom beam etching. Silicon substrate beneath GaN grating region is removed from the backside to form freestanding GaN gratings, and the patterned growth is subse...
متن کاملFabrication of 200 nm period blazed transmission gratings on silicon-on-insulator wafers
The authors report on the fabrication of 200 nm period blazed transmission gratings on silicon-on-insulator SOI wafers. These critical angle transmission CAT gratings require 3–5 m tall freestanding grating bars with a very high aspect ratio 100 and smooth sidewalls. In order to meet the challenging geometrical requirements, they modified and improved our previously reported process for the fab...
متن کاملSlow DNA transport through nanopores in hafnium oxide membranes.
We present a study of double- and single-stranded DNA transport through nanopores fabricated in ultrathin (2-7 nm thick) freestanding hafnium oxide (HfO2) membranes. The high chemical stability of ultrathin HfO2 enables long-lived experiments with <2 nm diameter pores that last several hours, in which we observe >50 000 DNA translocations with no detectable pore expansion. Mean DNA velocities a...
