ABSTRACTSelf-assembled Ga1−xInxNyAs1-y quantum dots were grown on GaAs by solid source molecular beam epitaxy (SSMBE). Introduction of N was achieved by a RF Nitrogen plasma source. Formation of quantum dots by S-K growth mode is confirmed by observation of standard 2D-3D RHEED pattern transition. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and photoluminescence (PL) measurements were used to characterize the structure and optical properties of GaInNAs quantum dots. High GaInNAs quantum dot density (1010∼1011cm−2) was obtained for different In and N composition (0.3≤ x ≤1, y≤0.01). The effect of surface coverage on dot density, dot size, and optical properties was studied in detail. Adjusting the bandgap confinement by incorporating a GaNAs strain-reduction layer into the GaInNAs dot layer was found to extend the emission wavelength by 170nm. Room temperature pulsed operation is demonstrated for a Ga0.5In0.5N0.01As0.99 quantum dot laser emitting at ∼1.1μm.

AbstractOhmic contacts on p-type GaN have been investigated. High quality GaN epilayers on cplane sapphire were prepared using plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy that utilized an inductively coupled rf nitrogen plasma source and solid source beams. The resulting film thickness and the doping concentration of the grown samples were in the range of 0.7–1.35 μm and 1018 – 1020/cm3, respectively. The metallization consisted of high work function metal bilayers which included a combinations of 25 nm-thick Ni, Ti, Pt and/or Cr and 200 nm-thick Au on the highly p-doped GaN in a transmission line model pattern. Ohmic contacts were formed by alloying the bi-layers using rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at temperatures in the range of 300–700 °C for 1 min under nitrogen ambient. Current-voltage measurements showed that the specific contact resistance was as low as 1.2 × 10 −4 Ω–cm2 for the sample having 1.4 × 1020/cm3p-type doping concentration with a Cr/Au contact annealed at 500 °C for 1 min by RTA. Judging from the scanning Auger microscopy results and the glancing angle x-ray diffraction analysis, this resistance is attributed to Cr diffusion into the GaN layer.
