ABSTRACTMonocrystalline β-SiC films have been chemically vapor deposited on Si(100) and c-SiC(0001) at 1660K-1823K and 0.1 MPa using SiH4 and C2H4 carried in H2. Films grown directly on Si(100) contained substantial concentrations of dislocations, stacking faults and antiphase boundaries (APB); those on α-SiC(0001) contained double positioning boundaries. Both the APBs and the double positioning boundaries were eliminated by using off-axis orientations of the respective substrates. Films produced on Si(100) have also been doped during growth and via ion implantation with B or Al (p-type) or P or N (n-type) at LN, room and elevated temperatures. Results from the former procedure showed the ionized dopant/total dopant concentration ratios for N, P, B and Al to be 0.1, 0.2, 0.002 and 0.01, respectively. The solubility limits of N, P and B at 1660K were determined to be ∼ 2E20, 1E18 and 8E18 cm−3, respectively; that of Al exceeds 2E19 cm−3. High temperature ion implantation coupled with dynamic and post annealing resulted in a markedly reduced defect concentration relative to that observed in similar research at the lower temperatures. Schottky diodes, p-n junctions, and MOSFET devices have been fabricated. The p-n junctions have the characteristics of insulators containing free carriers and deep level traps. The MOSFETs show very good I-V characteristics up to 673K, but have not been optimized.

Transient Spectroscopy

ABSTRACTDeep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) measurements have been performed on Schottky diodes fabricated on MBE grown InGaAs/GaAs heterostructures. The dominant electron trap in this material is found at a depth of 0.30eV below the GaAs conduction band and is believed to be the previously observed M3 defect. Two other defects, at depths of 0.50eV and 0.58eV below the GaAs conduction band, were also observed. Defect depth profiling shows the 0.50eV defect to be spatially locatednear the heterointerface. The 0.58eV defect is not observed near the heterointerface but is observed in large concentrations deep in the GaAs epilayer. Optical DLTS measurements reveal deep defects at 0.54eV and 0.31eV above the InGaAs valence band as well as a large, broad peak, most likely consisting of several energy levels with varying capture cross sections,located at the heterointerface. Two carrier accumulation peaks were also seen in the CV carrier profiling measurements and are suggested to be due to two heterointerface defects located at 0.68eV and 0.87eV below the GaAs conduction band.Thermally stimulated capacitance measurements also indicate minority hole emission in this n-InGaAs/N-GaAs heterostructure.

AbstractElectronic defects in MOCVD-grown n-type GaN were characterized by conventional deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) and by photoemission capacitance transient spectroscopy (O-DLTS) performed on Schottky diodes. With DLTS two deep levels were detected with thermal activation energies for electron emission to the conduction band of 0.16 eV and 0.44 eV. With O-DLTS we demonstrate four new deep levels with optical threshold energies for electron photoemission of ∼ 0.87 eV, 0.97 eV, 1.25 eV and 1.45 eV. The O-DLTS apparatus and the measurement are discussed in detail. We also report characterization of the Au-GaN barrier height of the Schottky diode by internal photoemission.

The mechanism of isomerization of hydroxyacetone to 2-hydroxypropanal is studied within the framework of reaction force analysis at the M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. Three unique pathways are considered: (i) a step-wise mechanism that proceeds through formation of the Z-isomer of their shared enediol intermediate, (ii) a step-wise mechanism that forms the E-isomer of the enediol, and (iii) a concerted pathway that bypasses the enediol intermediate. Energy calculations show that the concerted pathway has the lowest activation energy barrier at 45.7 kcal mol<sup>-1</sup>. The reaction force, chemical potential, and reaction electronic flux are calculated for each reaction to characterize electronic changes throughout the mechanism. The reaction force constant is calculated in order to investigate the synchronous/asynchronous nature of the concerted intramolecular proton transfers involved. Additional characterization of synchronicity is provided by calculating the bond fragility spectrum for each mechanism.
