AbstractThe pinning action on the barrier height of a Ga interfacial layer in an Sb/Ga/GaAs structure prepared by molecular beam epitaxy has been tracked as a function of Ga layer thicknesses for both n and p-GaAs (100). The barrier height ÆBn for n-type GaAs (ND=3×1015cm−3), determined by thermal activation measurements and capacitance measurements, changes from 0.8 to 1.0 eV as the Ga layer is increased from zero to three monolayers. The barrier height ÆBp for p-type GaAs decreases in a converse fashion so that the sum ÆBn + ÆBp is equal to the GaAs energy gap. Up to a Ga layer thickness of about one monolayer the barrier height changes are about linearly proportional to thickness.The action seen is compatible with barrier height changes that are seen when Sb/GaAs junctions are prepared with the original surface alternatively As or Ga rich and subjected to thermal annealing at temperatures up to 250°C.

ABSTRACTDoped diamond films grown by chemical vapor techniques has been used to study hydrogen and oxygen terminated diamond. It is known that the electrical characteristics of metal-diamond interface are strongly affected by the diamond surface features. O2 plasma treatment was used as a cleaning procedure for as grown diamond samples leading to changes in the capacitance measurements after treatment. The alteration in the characteristics of the samples can be attributed to the surface adsorbates like hydrogen and water vapor present in the atmosphere. The results indicates that the O2 plasma treatment was effective in cleaning the surface revealing the expected features of a p-type diamond film.

ABSTRACTGai1−xInxASySb1-y (0.06 < x < 0.18, 0.05 < y < 0.14) epilayers were grown lattice-matched to GaSb substrates by low-pressure organometallic vapor phase epitaxy (OMVPE) using triethylgallium, trimethylindium, tertiarybutylarsine, and trimethylantimony. These epilayers have a mirror-like surface morphology, and exhibit room temperature photoluminescence (PL) with peak emission wavelengths (λP,300K) out to 2.4 μm. 4K PL spectra have a full width at half-maximum of 11 meV or less for λP,4K < 2.1 μm (λP,300K = 2.3 μm). Nominally undoped layers are p-type with typical 300K hole concentration of 9 × 1015 cm−3 and mobility ∼ 450 to 580 cm2/V-s for layers grown at 575°C. Doping studies are reported for the first time for GalnAsSb layers doped n type with diethyltellurium and p type with dimethylzinc. Test diodes of p-GalnAsSb/n-GaSb have an ideality factor that ranges from 1.1 to 1.3. A comparison of electrical, optical, and structural properties of epilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy indicates OMVPE-grown layers are of comparable quality.

The electrical properties of the Nickel doped cupric oxide Ni-CuO thin films with various doping concentrations of Ni (0, 20, 30, 70, and 80%) are investigated at two different annealing temperatures; 200 and 400 °C. The electrical properties of the films; namely thermal activation energy and electrical energy gap are calculated and compared. We find that for the non-annealed Ni-CuO films, both thermal activation energy and electrical energy gap are decreased by increasing the doping concentration, while for the annealed films, the increase in the Ni doping results in the increase in thermal activation energy and electrical energy gap for most of the Ni-CuO films. We also observe that for a particular concentration, the annealing at 200 °C produces lower thermal activation energy and electrical energy gap than the annealing at 400 °C. We obtained two values of the activation energy varying from -5.52 to -0.51 eV and from 0.49 to 3.36 eV, respectively, for the annealing at 200 and 400 °C. We also obtained two values of the electrical bandgap varying from -11.05 to -1.03 eV and from 0.97 to 6.71 eV, respectively, for the annealing at 200 and 400 °C. It is also noticeable that the increase in the doping concentration reduces the activation energy, and hence the electrical bandgap energies.

ABSTRACTGaAs Has Been Grown By Molecular-Beam Epitaxy (MBE) With Large Concentrations (∼1018CM−2) Of Sn, Si, Ge, And Mn As Dopants. The Heavily-Doped N-Type Material Has Been Found To Contain Regions Of A Very High Dislocation Density. An Analysis Of The Less Complex Defect Areas Shows That The Dislocations Originate In The MBE-Grown Layer. These Observations And Others On More Complex Defect Clusters Are Compared With Recent Studies Of Defects In Material Grown By Liquid Phase Epitaxy (LPE). The More Heavily Doped P-Type Material Contains Discs Of Mn-Rich Material At The Surface Of The MBEgrown Epilayer. Both The Structure And Composition Of These Regions Have Been Examined.
