摘要
A rapid growth strategy for n-AlGaN with fine electrical properties has been put forward aiming at deep-ultraviolet light emitters. By shortening the terrace width using sapphire with large miscut angles, a growth window allowing a higher rate as well as a lower temperature is realized for Al-rich AlGaN, which is beneficial for the control of surface morphology and compensation defects in n-AlGaN. Specifically, a rate of 2.3 mu m h(-1) for n-Al0.55Ga0.45N is achieved at 1050 degrees C on sapphire with a miscut angle of 0.5 degrees, where the typical step-terrace morphology demonstrates the step-flow growth of n-Al0.55Ga0.45N. In addition, impressive electrical properties of n-Al0.55Ga0.45N are obtained at the appropriate low growth temperature (1050 degrees C), with the electron concentration and conductivity being 1.34 x 10(19) cm(-3) and 102.8 S cm(-1), respectively. As such, a 280 nm deep-ultraviolet light-emitting diode structure, containing 1.5 mu m-thick n-Al0.55Ga0.45N, is accomplished within 3.5 h, which meanwhile exhibits an obvious reduction of the operating voltage in the flip-chip configuration of devices.
