High electron mobility and low sheet resistance were achieved in lattice-matched AlInN/AlN/GaN/AlN/GaN double-channel (DC) heterostructure. Two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) of the DC heterostructure was divided into the double channels and the room-temperature mobility was increased to 1430 cm2/V s by reducing the 2DEG density in each channel, compared with low electron mobility (1090 cm2/V s) for lattice-matched AlInN/AlN/GaN single-channel heterostructure. It was found that the 2DEG mobility was limited by thickness of the AlN interlayer between the double channels. After the structure optimization, the room temperature electron mobility of the DC heterostructure reached 1570 cm2/V s with sheet resistance of 222 Ω/◻.
Nano-polycrystalline vanadium oxide thin films have been successfully produced by pulsed laser deposition on Si(100) substrates using a pure vanadium target in an oxygen atmosphere. The vanadium oxide thin film is amorphous when deposited at relatively low substrate temperature (500
°C) and enhancing substrate temperature (600–800 °C) appears to be efficient in crystallizing VOx thin films. Nano-polycrystalline V3O7 thin film has been achieved when deposited at oxygen pressure of 8 Pa and substrate temperature of 600
°C. Nano-polycrystalline VO2 thin films with a preferred (011) orientation have been obtained when deposited at oxygen pressure of 0.8 Pa and substrate temperatures of 600–800 °C. The vanadium oxide thin films deposited at high oxygen pressure (8 Pa) reveal a mix-valence
of V5+ and V4+, while the VOx thin films deposited at low oxygen pressure (0.8 Pa) display a valence of V4+. The nano-polycrystalline vanadium oxide thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition have smooth surface with high qualities of
mean crystallite size ranging from 30 to 230 nm and Ra ranging from 1.5 to 22.2 nm. Relative low substrate temperature and oxygen pressure are benifit to aquire nano-polycrystalline VOx thin films with small grain size and low surface roughness.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
