P-type GaN epitaxial layers and AlGaN/GaN heterostructures with high hole concentration and mobility grown by HVPE

Abstract: In this paper we report p-GaN growth by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) on sapphire substrates. Mg or Zn impurities were used for doping. Layer thickness ranged from 2 to 5 microns. For both impurities, as-grown GaN layers had p-type conductivity. Concentration NA-N D was varied from 10 16 to 10 18 cm -3 . An annealing procedure at 750 o C in argon ambient typically increased the concentration N A -N D in 1.5-3.5 times. For Mg doped GaN layers, room temperature hole mobility of 80 cm 2 V -1 s -1 was measure… Show more

“…The above experimental results showed that p-type GaN/sapphire templates are the promising substrates [5] for novel LED structures with upside down p-n junction. There may be some benefits to the p-side down structure involving polarization charge that will be discussed in more detail in a separate publication.…”

“…Recently, substantial progress has been achieved to develop HVPE technology for highly doped p-type GaN and AlGaN materials [5], fabricate AlGaN/GaN quantum well structures by low growth rate HVPE [6], and grow high quality InN epitaxial layers [7]. All-HVPE In-free ultra violet (UV) and violet light emitting diodes have been fabricated [8,9] and are in production.…”

“…To date, considerable effort has been expended to obtain a high hole carrier concentration. [3][4][5][6][7] Recently, we found that the activation energy of the acceptor level and the carrier concentration of the hole can be controlled by choosing a certain growth condition. In particular, if the source gases are fed in a pulse mode into a metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) reactor, the activation energy of the acceptor level can be drastically decreased, resulting in an increase in carrier concentration.…”

“…The latter was reported to ensure the highest intentional free carrier concentration of 8 Â 10 18 cm À3 [6]. The p-type doping in HVPE GaN growth can be achieved by using Zn [7], Cd [8], Be [9], or Mg [10], [11]. Today Mg doping, shown to be relatively more efficient, is mostly used by adding pure metal or powder Mg in a separate boat or mixed with Ga metal and exposed to the HCl.…”
