Photoluminescence investigation of GaN films grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition on (100) GaAs
نویسنده
چکیده
GaN films were grown on (100) GaAs substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition and were found to be of (200) cubic or (111) cubit/(0002) hexagonal phase. Their photoluminescence characteristics remained invariant with material phase. We report assignment of band-edge photoluminescence near 3!36 eV and 3.15-3.31 eV in apparently cubic GaN to intrinsic/bound excitons and phonon-assisted, donor-acceptor pair recombination respectively, on the basis of observed temperature and intensity dependences. A free exciton energy of 3.375 eV is deduced at 6.5 K.

Initial stages of GaN/GaAs(100) growth by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition
A study of GaN buffers grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition on ~001! GaAs substrates was performed. Nucleation images obtained by atomic force microscopy ~AFM! were employed to investigate the growth temperature, growth time, and growth rate dependence of the nucleation mechanisms. The growth mode corresponds to two-dimensional ~2D! island nucleation at low temperatures, while three-...

متن کاملProperties of GaN grown at high rates on sapphire and on 6H–SiC
Thick GaN films were deposited with growth rates as high as 250 mm/h by the direct reaction of ammonia and gallium vapor at 1240 °C. The characteristics of our films are comparable to those of typical thin films grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition or molecular beam epitaxy. Grown under identical conditions, films on ~0001! sapphire and on ~0001! 6H–SiC were compared in terms of the...
متن کاملTime-Resolved Photoluminescence Characterization of GaN Layers Grown by Metalorganic Chemical Vapor Deposition
GaN layers with wurtzite structure were found to exhibit intense photoluminescence (PL) at 3.47eV (T = 10K) corresponding to recombination of excitons bound to neutral donors. The dependence of this luminescence on the growth conditions, layer thickness and density of excitation power was studied. New PL bands were evidenced in the UV region under high levels of excitation (Iexc 3 0.56mJ/cm ).
