ABSTRACTDeep levels in Si doped AlxGa1−xN samples, with Al mole fraction in the range of x = 0 to 0.30, grown by radio-frequency plasma activated molecular beam epitaxy on sapphire substrates were characterized by deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS). DLTS measurements show two significant electron traps, P1 and P2, in AlGaN at all aluminum mole fractions. The electron trap, P2, appears to be a superposition of traps A and B , both of which are observed in GaN grown by various growth techniques and are thought to be related to VGa-shallow donor complexes. Trap P1 is related to line defects and N-related point defects. Both of these traps are distributed throughout the bulk of the epitaxial layer. An additional trap P0 which was observed in Al0.20Ga0.80N and Al0.30Ga0.70N is of unknown origin, but like P1 and P2, it exhibits dislocation-related capture kinetics. The activation energy measured from the conduction band of the defects is found to increase with Al mole content, a behavior consistent with other III-V semiconductors.

In this paper we have investigated the substrate-induced deep level defects in bulk GaN layers grown onp-silicon by molecular beam epitaxy. Representative deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) performed on Au-GaN/Si/Al devices displayed only one electron trap E1at 0.23 eV below the conduction band. Owing to out-diffusion mechanism; silicon diffuses into GaN layer from Si substrate maintained at 1050°C, E1level is therefore, attributed to the silicon-related defect. This argument is supported by growth of SiC on Si substrate maintained at 1050°C in MBE chamber using fullerene as a single evaporation source.

ABSTRACTElectron Cyclotron Resonance Plasma Assisted Molecular Beam Epitaxy (ECR-MBE) and Gas Source Molecular Beam Epitaxy (GSMBE) have been used to grow hexagonal GaN on Si (111). In the ECR-MBE configuration high purity nitrogen has been used as nitrogen source. In GSMBE ammonia was supplied directly to the substrate to be thermally cracked in the presence of gallium.By a combined application of in-situ reflection high-energy electron-diffraction (RHEED) and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) the growth mode and structure of GaN were determined. The growth mode strongly depends on growth conditions. Quasi two dimensional growth was observed in ECR-MBE configuration for a substrate temperature of 640°C while three dimensional growth occured in GSMBE configuration in the temperature range from 640 to 800°C.Low temperature (9 K) photoluminescence spectra show that for samples grown by ECR-MBE and GSMBE a strong near band gap emission peak dominates while transitions due to deep level states are hardly detectable. The best optical results (the highest near band gap emission peak intensity) have been observed for samples grown by GSMBE at high temperature (800°C). This could be explained by the increase of grain dimensions (up to 0,3 – 0,5 μm) observed in samples grown by GSMBE at 800°C.

AbstractUsing current-voltage measurements, deep-level transient spectroscopy and admittance spectroscopy we investigated nitrogen doped ZnSe grown on p-GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. Three major hole traps were observed with energy levels at 0. 11, 0.46, and 0.56 eV from the valence band. We attribute the level at 0.11 eV to a nitrogen acceptor. No other direct observations of this important acceptor level in p-ZnSe have been reported in the literature so far. The two remaining levels may originate from the nitrogen doping process. In addition, reverse current-voltage characteristics of the ZnSe/GaAs heterojunction show a hysteresis at low temperature and a soft saturation. At a constant reverse bias the current increases slowly until it reaches a steady state value. This behavior is attributed to a slow voltage-induced barrier lowering due to the presence of mismatch interface states. Therefore, these analyses are of a major interest for applications of ZnSe/GaAs based devices and illustrates the necessity of improving the growth conditions of such structures.
