Properties of GaN-based nanopillar-shaped crystals grown on a multicrystalline Si substrate

Abstract: The growth of gallium nitride-based nanopillar-shaped crystals on the multicrystalline silicon substrate that is widely employed in solar cells is presented here for the first time. The nanopillar-shaped crystals are successfully grown on the multicrystalline substrate in a manner similar to the structures grown on other substrates. Structural variations and a highly enhanced band edge emission in the photoluminescence spectrum have been observed using germanium doping.

“…We also have tried to grow GaN-based nanopillar crystals directly on several non-single-crystalline substrates. [26][27][28] However, these substrates also have some shortcomings, such as quartz glass does not have electrical conductivity, and the thermal expansion coefficient of Ti and GaN is relatively large. These are not conducive to the growth of GaN and the fabrication of optoelectronic devices.…”

“…[26][27][28] Recently our group has grown GaN-based nanopillar-shaped-crystals on a multicrystalline Si substrate, and confirmed that the nanopillarcrystalline film yields a good optical property. 29) Since multicrystalline Si wafers manufactured by the casting method have been widely utilized for solar cells of low cost, various sizes and conductivities, the selection is advantageous to produce novel low cost and large-area GaN-based devices.…”

“…The aim of the present investigation is thus to find any unique microstructural feature which could account for the good optical property reported elsewhere. 29) This paper focuses on the description of the microstructure of the GaN film grown on a multicrystalline Si substrate, especially on the nanopillar-shaped grain textures and lattice defects observable by transmission electron microscope (TEM).…”
