Controlled growth of hexagonal GaN pyramids by hot-wall MOCVD

چکیده
The growth evolution of hexagonal GaN pyramids are investigated under various growth conditions. The hexagonal GaN pyramids were grown by hot-wall metal organic chemical vapor deposition – process (hot-wall MOCVD) on a (0001) oriented GaN template. We concluded the growth of the hexagonal GaN pyramids can be divided into two different regimes defined by the adsorption kinetics of the {1101} surfaces of the pyramids. In the adsorption -regime, the hexagonal GaN pyramids expands in <1101> -direction. In the zero adsorption -regime, there are no expansion in the <1101> direction thus the growth ceases after the top (0001) surface is eliminated. The growth regime selection has large impact on the pyramid to pyramid uniformity and the growth evolution of the pyramids. The pyramid to pyramid uniformity was found to rapidly degrade with increasing growthtime in the absorption regime, while no uniformity degradation was observed in the zero adsorption -regime. Large arrays of hexagonal GaN pyramid with apex radiuses less than 3 nm was achieved in the zero adsorption regime. A simple model is proposed for the uniformity degradation mechanism in the adsorption regime.

Selective epitaxial growth of InGaN alloys was performed by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Templates consisted of arrays of circular etched holes in a SiO 2 mask layer, with pre-grown GaN hexagonal pyramid structures. The room temperature (300 K) photoluminescence (PL) peak wavelength increased with increasing maskopening spacing for a constant mask-opening diameter. For 5 lm d...

The inherent advantages of the hot-wall metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD reactor (low temperature gradients, less bowing of the wafer during growth, efficient precursor cracking) compared to a cold-wall reactor make it easier to obtain uniform growth. However, arcing may occur in the growth chamber during growth, which deteriorates the properties of the grown material. By insertin...
