Metalorganic Chemical Vapor Deposition For Optoelectronic Devices - Proceedings of the IEEE
نویسنده
چکیده
The metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) process for electronic and photonic compound semiconductor materials and devices is reviewed. We begin with an introduction to the basic MOCVD chemical reaction process, gas delivery equipment, reaction chambers, and safety. Growth mechanisms, including hydrodynamics, boundary-layer issues, thermal effects, and pyrolysis reactions, are defined, and criteria for growth regimes, growth rate, and alloy composition are described. Material, structural, and dopant considerations, which are particularly important to optoelectronic devices, are presented. Last, a brief description of the selective area epitaxial growth process is presented.

Improved Low Resistance Contacts of Ni/Au and Pd/Au to p-Type GaN Using a Cryogenic Treatment
A low resistance Ohmic contact to p-type GaN is essential for reliable operation of electronic and optoelectronic devices. Such contacts have been made using Ni/Au and Pd / Au contacts to p-type Mg-doped GaN (1.41x10 cm) grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition ( MOCVD ) on ( 0001 ) sapphire substrates. Thermal evaporation was used for the deposition of those metals followed by annealing...

We applied a new Migration Enhanced Metalorganic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MEMOCVD) epitaxial technique for growing AlN/GaN/InN epitaxial films and heterostructure layers on 2”, 3” and 4” substrates. The growth of the AlN/GaN/InN layers was carried out using controlled precursor pulsed flows to achieve accurate thickness control over large area substrates. This technique bridges the gap betwee...
متن کاملCorrelation between optoelectronic and structural properties and epilayer thickness of AlN
AlN epilayers were grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition on sapphire substrates. X-ray diffraction measurements revealed that the threading dislocation TD density, in particular, the edge TD density, decreases considerably with increasing the epilayer thickness. Photoluminescence results showed that the intensity ratio of the band edge emission to the defect related emission increase...

The progress toward integrated photonic devices by selective-area metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) is reviewed. Processing steps involved with fabricating buried heterostructures (BH’s) by a three-step technique are outlined, and a computational model is presented that predicts the enhancement behavior of selective-area MOCVD. Results are reviewed for several discrete and integrat...
