InGaN/GaN和InGaN/AlGaN多量子阱中应变对光致发光特性的影响

对蓝宝石衬底上的InGaN/GaN和InGaN/AlGaN多量子阱结构和经激光剥离去除衬底的InGaN/GaN和InGaN/AlGaN多量子阱结构薄膜样品,进行了光致发光谱、高分辨XRD和喇曼光谱测量.PL测量结果表明,相对于带有蓝宝石衬底的样品,InGaN/GaN多量子阱薄膜样品的PL谱峰值波长发生较小的蓝移,而InGaN/AlGaN多量子阱薄膜样品的PL谱峰值波长发生明显的红移;喇曼光谱的结果表明,激光剥离前后E2模的峰值从569.1减少到567.5cm-1.这说明激光剥离去除衬底使得外延层整体的压应力得到部分释放,但InGaN/GaN与InGaN/AlGaN多量子阱结构中阱层InGaN的应力发生了不同的变化.XRD的结果证实了这一结论.

InGaN/GaN多量子阱的变温发光特性研究

采用低压金属有机化学沉积方法制备了InGaN/GaN多量子阱.变温PL测量发现,量子阱发光强度具有良好的温度稳定性,随着温度升高(10～300K),发光强度只减小到1/3左右.分析认为,InGaN/GaN多量子阱的多峰发光结构是由多量子阱的组分及阱宽的不均匀引起的.随着温度升高,GaN带边及量子阱的光致发光均向低能方向移动,但与GaN带边不同,量子阱发光峰值变化并不与通过内插法得到的Varshni经验公式相吻合,而是与InN带边红移趋势一致,分析了导致这种现象的可能因素.还分析了量子阱发光寿命随温度升高而减小的原因.

AlGaN/GaN/InGaN/GaN DH-HEMTs with an InGaN notch for enhanced carrier confinement

We report an AlGaN/GaN/InGaN/GaN double heterojunction high electron mobility transistors (DH-HEMTs) with high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG) and reduced buffer leakage. The device features a 3-nm thin In/sub x/Ga/sub 1-x/N(x=0.1) layer inserted into the conventional AlGaN/GaN HEMT structure. Assisted by the InGaN layers polarization field that is opposite to that in the AlGaN layer, an additional potential barrier is introduced between the 2-DEG channel and buffer, leading to enhanced carrier confinement and improved buffer isolation. For a sample grown on sapphire substrate with MOCVD-grown GaN buffer, a 2-DEG mobility of around 1300 cm/sup 2//V/spl middot/s and a sheet resistance of 420 /spl Omega//sq were obtained on this new DH-HEMT structure at room temperature. A peak transconductance of 230 mS/mm, a peak current gain cutoff frequency (f/sub T/) of 14.5 GHz, and a peak power gain cutoff frequency (f/sub max/) of 45.4 GHz were achieved on a 1/spl times/100 /spl mu/m device. The off-state source-drain leakage current is as low as /spl sim/5 /spl mu/ A/mm at V/sub DS/=10 V. For the devices on sapphire substrate, maximum power density of 3.4 W/mm and PAE of 41% were obtained at 2 GHz.     

InGaN/GaN LEDs with a Si-doped InGaN/GaN short-period superlattice tunneling contact layer

Nitride-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with Si-doped n⁺-In_0.23Ga_0.77N/GaN short-period superlattice (SPS) tunneling contact top layer were fabricated. It was found that although the measured specific-contact resistance is around 1 × 10⁻² Ω-cm² for samples with an SPS tunneling contact layer, the measured specific-contact resistance is around 1.5×10⁰ Ω-cm² for samples without an SPS tunneling contact layer. Furthermore, it was found that one could lower the LED-operation voltage from 3.75 V to 3.4 V by introducing the SPS structure. It was also found that the LED-operation voltage is almost independent of the CP₂Mg flow rate when we grow the underneath p-type GaN layer. The LED-output intensity was also found to be larger for samples with the SPS structure.     

Lasing in the vertical direction in InGaN/GaN/AlGaN structures with InGaN quantum dots

InGaN/GaN structures with dense arrays of InGaN nanodomains were grown by metallorganic chemical vapor deposition. Lasing in vertical direction occurs at low temperatures, indicating ultrahigh gains (～ 10⁵ cm^?1) in the active region. Fabrication of an effective AlGaN/GaN distributed Bragg reflector with reflectivity exceeding 90% enables vertical lasing at room temperature in structures with a bottom distributed Bragg reflector, despite the absence of a well-reflecting upper mirror. The lasing wavelength is 401 nm, and the threshold excitation density is 400 kW/cm².

Selectively Doped High-Power AlGaN/InGaN/GaN MOS-DHFET

We describe a novel AlGaN/InGaN/GaN metal-oxide-semiconductor double heterostructure field-effect transistor with peak drain current of 1.67 A/mm and 2-GHz RF power of 15 W/mm at a drain bias as low as 35 V. These high values of peak currents and high RF powers at relatively low drain bias resulted from an additional selective area doping of the access regions during the device fabrication. The RF-output power of 12.5 W/mm (at a drain bias of V_D=30 V) was stable within a 0.5-dB variations during a 100-h continuous-wave stress test
