Abstract: | Novel growth technologies of III-nitrides for fabricating optical devices by molecular beam epitaxy using RF-plasma excited nitrogen (RF-MBE) were investigated. A relatively high-growth rate, up to 1.4 μm/h of GaN with high-electrical and high-optical quality was obtained. The concept of AlGaN quasi-ternary (QT) compounds, consisting of GaN-AlGaN short period superlattice, was demonstrated and the Al composition was controlled with a shutter control method in the range of 0-0.47. Using the QT technology, a GaN-Al0.07Ga0.933N-Al0.3Ga0.7 N multiquantum-well heterostructure was fabricated to show the effectiveness of the method |
