Abstract:We demonstrated the feasibility of the growth of GaN thin films from polycrystalline GaAs using reactive pulsed laser deposition. The films were grown on Si (1 00) substrates at temperatures lower than 80 °C. A bulk of polycrystalline GaAs was used as target. Reactive nitrogen plasma was provided by electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) microwave discharge in pure nitrogen gas to assist the film growth. Composition analysis showed that the grown films are slightly N-rich, and arsenic can hardly be detected. A str… Show more
