AbstractWe report on results of low-temperature photoluminescence measurements performed on GaN films, grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on sapphire substrates. The GaN films are either Mg doped (p-type) or consist of a Mg-doped layer on top of a Si doped GaN layer (n-type). In the p-doped samples, the sharpness of the donor-acceptor-pair transition is striking, three phonon replicas are clearly resolved. A transition band occurs around 3.4 eV, which becomes dominant for samples with an np-layer structure. The position and the composition of the near band edge transitions are influenced by the growth of the buffer layers. Depending on the growth conditions a transition at 3.51 eV can be observed.

Plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxial growth of Mg -doped GaN and InGaN on a sapphire substrate is investigated in this study. Electrical characteristics of p -type GaN strongly depend on the flux of Mg acceptors and the growth temperature. Only the intermediate range of Mg fluxes (beam equivalent pressures near 1×10-9T) produce p -type GaN with good electrical properties, and a maximum hole concentration of 3.5 × 1018 cm-3 is obtained with a Hall mobility of 2.1 cm2/V·s. Due to the strong surface accumulation of electrons, Hall measurements do not indicate p -type polarity for In fraction beyond 11%. In contrast, hot probe measurements show that p -polarity can be measured for the entire range of Mg -doped In mole fractions. Electroluminescence also indicates p -polarity for Ga -rich mole fractions. In x Ga1- x N p - n homojunctions are fabricated and tested. All GaN devices show low series resistance (0.03 ohm-cm2) and insignificant parasitic leakage. IV curves of all three InGaN homojunctions show rectifying characteristics under dark conditions and photo-response under outdoor sunlight, indicating the existence of holes in InGaN with up to 40% In content.

Hall effect measurements have been applied for the electrical characterization of p-type Mg-doped GaN grown by metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy on sapphire substrates in terms of annealing temperature for dehydrogenation (N2 annealing) and hydrogenation (H2 annealing) of the acceptors. With the N2 annealing temperature from 600 to 900 °C for dehydrogenation, both hole concentration and mobility increases, showing more activation of acceptors and less incorporation of unfavorable scattering centers probably originating from Mg-H bondings. The N2 annealing at higher than the growth temperature results in reduced hole concentration, but the mobility gets higher. Some defects compensating acceptors may be induced at high temperature annealing, but they seem to be no scattering centers and be inactivated by successive hydrogenation and re-dehydrogenation at the optimum dehydrogenation temperature 900 °C. The electrical degradation of GaN due to thermal damage is not very destructive and can be well recovered by annealing treatments.
