ABSTRACTA recombination lifetime of approximately 25 ns was extracted from measured reverse recovery storage times in AlGaN/GaN/AlGaN double heterojunction blue light emitting diodes. This experimentally determined lifetime is expected to arise from a combination of radiative and non-radiative processes occurring in the diodes. The non-radiative processes are likely to be due the presence of a high concentration deep-states as identified from the current-voltage and capacitance-voltage measurements. Current-voltage characteristics of these diodes were highly non-ideal as indicated by high values of the ideality factor ranging from 3.0 – 7.0. Logarithmic plots of the forward characteristics indicated a space-charge-limited-current (SCLC) conduction in presence of a high density of “deep-level states” in the active region of the diodes. An analysis of these characteristics yielded an approximate density of these deep-level states as 2 × 1017/cm3. The density of deep-states extracted from capacitance-voltage measurements were in good agreement with that obtained from current-voltage measurements.

The results of experimental studies of capacitance– voltage characteristics, spectra of deep-level transient spectroscopy of graded high-voltage GaAs p+−p0−i−n0 diodes fabricated by liquid-phase epitaxy at a crystallization temperature of 900C from one solution–melt due to autodoping with background impurities, in a hydrogen or argon ambient, before and after irradiation with neutrons. After neutron irradiation, deep-level transient spectroscopy spectra revealed wide zones of defect clusters with acceptor-like negatively charged traps in the n0-layer, which arise as a result of electron emission from states located above the middle of the band gap. It was found that the differences in capacitance–voltage characteristics of the structures grown in hydrogen or argon ambient after irradiation are due to different doses of irradiation of GaAs p+−p0−i−n0 structures and different degrees of compensation of shallow donor impurities by deep traps in the layers.

AbstractWe report on a detailed investigation of MBE-grown isotype silicon-doped heterostructures by capacitance/voltage (C/V) technique and deep-level transient spectroscopy (DLTS). A sequence of electrically active defects is found. By depth profiling of the density of the dominant levels it is demonstrated that the corresponding defects are concentrated at the GaAs-on-AlAs (inverted) interface. By comparison with studies on irradiation-induced levels in LPE- or VPE-grown AlGaAs we conclude that the defects at the GaAs/AlAs interface are most probably linked to different charge states of the arsenic vacancy VAs and VAs−ASi pairs.
