ABSTRACTP-type GaN films were grown on sapphire substrates in a horizontal metalorganic chemical vapor deposition system using (C5H5)2Mg (Cp2Mg) as the p-dopant source. It is found that the acceptor concentration in the post-growth annealed GaN samples increases with the Mg flow rate and reaches a peak value of 1×1019 cm−3 at Mg flow rate of 0.84 ĉmol/min. The films remain semi-insulating even after annealing when the Mg flow rate is higher than 1.08 ĉmol/min. The effects of annealing temperature and duration on the electrical properties of GaN are also investigated. The results confirm that a 800 °C, 30 minutes post-growth annealing in N2 ambient is sufficient to activate most of the Mg atoms. In addition, study of rapid thermal annealing of Mg-doped GaN was carried out and the results show that the p-type acceptor concentration obtained is comparable to the results obtained using furnace annealing process. Finally, GaN light emitting diodes (LEDs) are demonstrated using undoped layer as the n-type base layer in a p-on-n structure. The light emission spectra are dominated by the 430 nm peak, accompanied with two relatively weak peaks located at 380nm and 550nm.

AbstractUsing one material system from the near infrared into the ultraviolet is an attractive goal, and may be achieved with (In,Al,Ga)N. This III-N material system, famous for enabling blue and white solid-state lighting, has been pushing towards longer wavelengths in more recent years. With a bandgap of about 0.7 eV, InN can emit light in the near infrared, potentially overlapping with the part of the electromagnetic spectrum currently dominated by III-As and III-P technology. As has been the case in these other III–V material systems, nanostructures such as quantum dots and quantum dashes provide additional benefits towards optoelectronic devices. In the case of InN, these nanostructures have been in the development stage for some time, with more recent developments allowing for InN quantum dots and dashes to be incorporated into larger device structures. This review will detail the current state of metalorganic chemical vapor deposition of InN nanostructures, focusing on how precursor choices, crystallographic orientation, and other growth parameters affect the deposition. The optical properties of InN nanostructures will also be assessed, with an eye towards the fabrication of optoelectronic devices such as light-emitting diodes, laser diodes, and photodetectors.
