AbstractPhotoreflectance was used to study the optical properties of single crystal hexagonal GaN film on (0001) sapphire substrate grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The energy gap of GaN was determined as 3.400 eV, and the possible origin of the PR signal was attributed to the modulation of the surface field and lineshape broadening of defects. Optical absorption and cathodoluminescence of the GaN sample were measured, and the optical absorption edge of 3.39 eV and the cathodoluminescence emission peak of 3.461 eV at low temperature (15.6K) confirmed the results of Photoreflectance.

ABSTRACTThe growth of GaNP using laser-assisted metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (LA-MOCVD) was carried out for the fabrication of a light-emitting diode (LED). We used an Ar-F laser in order to decompose the source gases at lower temperatures. Trimethylgallium (TMG), ammonia (NH3) and tertialybuthylphosphine (TBP) were used for the growth. GaNP growth was carried out at different temperatures. After that, annealing was carried out at 1273-1373 K to improve the crystal quality.As a result, N-rich GaNP could be grown at 1123-1223 K. The surface morphologies of GaNP were improved when the growth temperature was increased to above 1173 K. We investigated the photoluminescence (PL) of GaNP. The band-edge emission of GaNP was observed at 77 K upon applying thermal annealing at 1323 K. This peak shifted to about 0.2 eV compared with the GaN band-edge emission. Furthermore, a GaNP LED was fabricated and the electoluminescence spectra were investigated. The band-edge emission at 420 nm was observed.

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.
