ABSTRACTMost publications on (opto)electronic devices based on 2D materials rely on single monolayers embedded in classical 3D semiconductors, dielectrics and metals. However, heterostructures of different 2D materials can be employed to tailor the performance of the 2D components by reduced defect densities, carrier or exciton transfer processes and improved stability. This translates to additional and unique degrees of freedom for novel device design. The nearly infinite number of potential combinations of 2D layers allows for many fascinating applications. Unlike mechanical stacking, metal-organic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) can potentially provide large-scale highly homogeneous 2D layer stacks with clean and sharp interfaces. Here, we demonstrate the direct successive MOVPE of MoS2/WS2 and WS2/MoS2 heterostructures on 2” sapphire (0001) substrates. Furthermore, the first deposition of large-scale MoS2/graphene and WS2/graphene heterostructures using only MOVPE is presented and the influence of growth time on nucleation of WS2 on graphene is analysed.

Reduction and limitation of free spaces between the gallium phosphide nanocones was studied. A set of nanocone samples was grown by metal organic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) in the temperature range between 610 and 690°C. Our results showed that by an appropriate combination of a high density of gold seeds and an optimized growth temperature it was possible to obtain a nanostructured surface with very limited free spaces between the nanocones. A combination of lateral and vertical growth rates regulated by the selection of growth temperature played a very important role in the nanocone hexagonal base enlargement, which helped to minimize spaces between the cones. The limitation of free space between the nanocones increased a probability of edge creation that is very helpful for the successful growth of 2D materials.

The detailed characterization of metal organic vapour phase epitaxy grown ZnS layers on GaAs is the first step towards the study of their different non-linear optical properties performed with nanosecond lasers. Biexciton phenomena (with a binding energy of about 10 meV) are observed in photoluminescence-excitation and optical-gain spectra.

Lightly compensated epitactic n-type GaAs is obtained by metal-organic vapour-phase epitaxy (MOVPE) with free-carrier concentration in the low 1015 cm−3 range and with good uniformity of both thickness and impurity concentrations over a 2-in.-diameter area (1 in. = 2.54 cm). Detailed Hall-effect and photoluminescence measurements are reported. At temperatures below 8 K, the conductivity is governed by variable-range hopping, clearly indicating a band of localized donor states. At higher impurity concentrations, a metallic contribution to the conductivity suggests a buildup of extended states near the middle of this band. These results are consistent with the observed photoluminescence.

Undoped and doped layers of gallium arsenide and aluminium gallium arsenide have been grown on gallium arsenide by low-pressure metal organic vapour-phase epitaxy (MOVPE). Delta doping and growth on silicon substrates have also been attempted. Of particular interest in the present study has been the influence of growth parameters, such as growth temperature, group III mole fraction and dopant flow, on the electrical and physical properties of gallium arsenide layers. An increase in growth temperature leads to increased doping efficiency in the case of silicon, whereas the opposite is true in the case of zinc. Deep level transient spectroscopy (DTLS) studies on undoped GaAs layers showed two levels, the expected EL2 level and a carbon-related level. The determination of optimum growth conditions has allowed good quality GaAs and AlGaAs epitaxial layers to be produced for a range of applications.`

Abstract Growth of AlxGa1−xN layers (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) simultaneously on polar (0001), semipolar ($$10\bar{{\rm{1}}}$$ 10 1 ¯ 3) and ($$11\bar{{\rm{2}}}2$$ 11 2 ¯ 2 ), as well as nonpolar ($$10\bar{{\rm{1}}}0$$ 10 1 ¯ 0 ) and ($$11\bar{{\rm{2}}}0$$ 11 2 ¯ 0 ) AlN templates, which were grown on planar sapphire substrates, has been investigated by metal-organic vapour phase epitaxy. By taking into account anisotropic in-plane strain of semi- and non-polar layers, their aluminium incorporation has been determined by x-ray diffraction analysis. Optical emission energy of the layers was obtained from room-temperature photoluminescence spectra, and their effective bandgap energy was estimated from room-temperature pseudo-dielectric functions. Both x-ray diffraction and optical data consistently show that aluminium incorporation is comparable on the polar, semi- and non-polar planes.
