Ti/Al/Ni/Au在GaN N面上的欧姆接触

以Ti/Al/Ni/Au作为欧姆接触金属体系,通过电感耦合等离子体(ICP)刻蚀的预处理,在氢化物气相外延法生长的单晶氮化镓(GaN)材料的N面实现了良好的欧姆接触,其比接触电阻率为3.7×10-4 Ω·cm2.通过扫描电子显微镜、原子力显微镜、阴极荧光和光致发光谱对GaN N面的表面、光学特性进行了对比表征.结果表明:未刻蚀GaN衬底的N面表面存在一定的损伤层,导致近表面处含有大量缺陷,不利于欧姆接触的形成;而ICP刻蚀处理有效地去除了损伤层.X射线光电子能谱(XPS)分析显示刻蚀后样品的Ga 3d结合能比未刻蚀样品向高能方向移动了约0.3 eV,其肖特基势垒则相应降低,有利于欧姆接触的形成.同时对Fe掺杂半绝缘GaN的N面也进行了刻蚀处理,同样实现了良好的Ti/Al/Ni/Au欧姆接触,其比接触电阻率为0.12 Ω·cm2.     

Fe掺杂GaN中Fe相关缺陷发光特性研究

利用氢化物气相外延方法制备了 Fe掺杂GaN单晶.材料发光特性随掺杂浓度、温度和激发功率的变化规律表明,位于蓝光波段的发光与掺杂的Fe离子有关.随着Fe掺杂浓度的增加,红外波段发光强度将被抑制,而蓝光波段发光强度显著增加.在较高位错密度样品中,相比于蓝光,红外发光强度显著增加.掺杂样品的光致激发光谱进一步说明了 Fe离子相关的红外和蓝光发光能级跃迁特征及过程.结果表明GaN中的本征缺陷结构以及位错对Fe相关能级跃迁具有重要影响.

Novel method for doping nano TiO2 photocatalysts by chemical vapour deposition

Highly active photocatalytic Fe-doped nano TiO₂ was successfully synthesised by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) method using FeCl₃ as Fe source. CVD was carried out by evaporating FeCl₃ at 350°C in nitrogen flow during 30–90?min. The amount of Fe incorporated into TiO₂ framework is adjusted by the amount of FeCl₃ used and the evaporation time. The obtained sample was characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), UV-Vis, Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Photocatalytic activities of the samples were tested in photocatalytic decomposition of 2-propanol in liquid phase using visible light instead of UV light irradiation. Non-doped TiO₂ and high Fe loading TiO₂ samples showed very low photocatalytic activity, whereas the low Fe loading TiO₂ sample exhibited high photocatalytic activity under visible light. The high photocatalytic activity of this sample was rationalised by the existence of defects (Ti–OH groups) as the active sites.

Enhanced electrochemical hydrogen storage by catalytic Fe-doped multi-walled carbon nanotubes synthesized by thermal chemical vapor deposition

Hydrogen storage capacities of raw, oxidized, purified and Fe-doped multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were studied by electrochemical method. Based on transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopic data, thermal oxidation removed defective graphite shells at the outer walls of MWCNTs. The analysis results indicated that the acid treatment dissolved most of the catalysts and opened some tips of the MWCNTs. Thermal gravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry results illustrated that by oxidation and purification of MWCNTs, the weight loss peak shifts toward a higher temperature. N₂ adsorption isotherms of the purified and oxidized MWCNTs showed an increase in N₂ adsorption below P/P_o = 0.05, suggesting that microporous structures exist in the purified and oxidized MWCNTs. The electrochemical results revealed that the Fe-doped MWCNTs produced the highest hydrogen storage capacities compared to the other samples in various sweep rates. According to electrochemical analyses, the peak currents of hydrogen adsorption/desorption increased by increasing the catalyst's active surface.     

Mesoscopic nonuniformity of wafer-annealed semi-insulating InP

We have analyzed the mesoscopic uniformity of as-grown and annealed low Fedoped InP-wafers grown by different methods (LEC/VGF). Both by scanning photoluminescence measurements and by high resolution point contact mappings corresponding inhomogeneities on a typical scale of 50–70 μm have been observed, showing that most probably the Fe-distribution is nonuniform. By comparison with the distribution of etch-pits, a tentative model for their creation is discussed.     

Mixtures of iron and anatase TiO2 by mechanical alloying

Fe-doped TiO₂ powders were obtained by mechanical alloying. The starting materials were anatase TiO₂ and metallic iron (α-Fe) or hematite (α-Fe₂O₃). The influence of different milling conditions such as: ball to powder weight ratio, milling time, rotation velocity of supporting disc, and dopant concentration on the structural and magnetic properties were investigated. All experiments were performed in atmospheric conditions. The milled powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) using Rietveld refinement and room temperature Mössbauer spectrometry. The XRD patterns of all samples show the coexistence of both anatase and rutile phases and also the high-pressure srilankite phase. Mössbauer spectra reveal the presence of Fe²⁺ and Fe³⁺ states in Fe-doped TiO₂ as well as α-Fe or α-Fe₂O₃ in samples obtained from metallic iron or hematite, respectively. The Fe³⁺ contribution could be attributed to Fe incorporated in the TiO₂ structure and the Fe²⁺ can be probably assigned to surface ferrous ions in the TiO₂.     

Fe-doped SnO2 obtained by mechanical alloying

In this work, iron-doped SnO₂ powders were prepared by two methods: mechanical alloying and mechanochemical alloying with successive thermal treatment. The influence of different milling conditions such as ball to powder weight ratio, milling time, rotation velocity of supporting disc and the type of iron starting reactive and their Fe concentration on the structural and magnetic properties of the products were investigated. A greater incorporation of Fe in the SnO₂ structure was observed when the samples were prepared by using mechanochemical alloying and successive thermal treatment.
