AbstractStepwise equilibrated graded GexSii-x (x≤0.2) buffers with threading dislocation densities between 102 and 103 cm−2 on the whole area of 4 inch silicon wafers were grown and studied by transmission electron microscopy, defect etching, atomic force microscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy.

Patterned Sapphire Substrates

We report the characteristics of AlN epilayers grown directly on cylindrical-patterned sapphire substrates (CPSS) by hydride vapor-phase epitaxy (HVPE). To evaluate the effect of CPSS, we analyzed the threading dislocation densities (TDDs) of AlN films grown simultaneously on CPSS and flat sapphire substrate (FSS) by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The corresponding TDD is measured to be 5.69 x 108 cm−2 for the AlN sample grown on the CPSS that is almost an order of magnitude lower than the value of 3.43 × 109 cm−2 on the FSS. The CPSS contributes to reduce the TDs originated from the AlN/sapphire interface via bending the TDs by lateral growth during the coalescence process. In addition, the reduction of direct interface area between AlN and sapphire by CPSS reduce the generation of TDs.

The use of AlGaN / GaN HEMTs and HBTs for switching power supplies is explored. With its high electron velocities and breakdown fields, GaN has great potential for power switching. The field-plate HEMT increased breakdown voltages by 20% to 570V by reducing the peak field at the drain-side edge of the gate. The use of a gate insulator is also investigated, using both JVD SiO 2 and e-beam evaporated SiO 2 to reduce gate leakage, increasing breakdown voltages to 1050V and 1300V respectively. The power device figure of merit (FOM) for these devices: [Formula: see text], is the highest reported for switching devices. To reduce trapping effects, reactively sputtered SiN x, is used as a passivant, resulting in a switching time of less than 30 ns for devices blocking over 110V with a drain current of 1.4A under resistive load conditions. Dynamic load results are also presented. The development of HBTs for switching applications included the development of an etched emitter HBT with a selectively regrown extrinsic base. This was later improved upon with the selectively regrown emitter devices with current gains as high as 15. To improve breakdown in these devices, thick GaN layers were grown, reducing threading dislocation densities in the active layers. A further improvement included the use of a bevelled shallow etch and a lateral collector design to maximize device breakdown.

ABSTRACTIn this paper we address the problem of producing SiGe buffer layers of acceptable quality for the growth of symmetrically strained SiGe structures. Initially we consider SiGe layers grown to well beyond the metastable critical thickness and examine the degree of residual strain both as - grown and post anneal. The defect levels in metastable SiGe layers following high temperature anneal were also studied. A buffer layer was grown consisting of stacked metastable SiGe layers each of which is annealed in situ prior to the growth of the next layer and terminating with a 0.45 SiGe alloy. This produces nearly fully relaxed 1.15pim thick structures with threading dislocation densities of 4 × 106cm−2. Limited area growth on Si suggests that elastically relaxed material free of both threading and misfit dislocations can be produced.
