The process of conversion from [Formula: see text]-Ga2O3 single crystal to gallium nitride (GaN) in an atmosphere of NH3 by chemical vapor deposition is investigated. The surface morphology and microstructure of the GaN nanoparticles are observed by scanning electron microscope, which indicates that the growth of GaN is via the Volmer–Weber mechanism. The [Formula: see text]-Ga2O3 is firstly evaporated at high temperature to form the porous layer, followed by the surface-defect induced GaN nucleation formation. The crystalline structure and epitaxial relationship of the GaN nanoparticles are investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) via [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text], showing GaN (0002) and (0004) diffraction peaks in the XRD spectra. It is concluded that the polycrystalline GaN film with hexagonal structure has a strong c-axis preferential orientation.

Films containing the metals copper, yttrium, calcium, strontium, barium, and bismuth were grown by organometallic chemical vapor deposition (OMCVD). Depositions were carried out at atmospheric pressure in an oxygen-rich environment using metal beta-diketonates and triphenylbismuth. The films were characterized by Auger electron spectroscopy, Nomarski and scanning electron microscopy, and x-ray diffraction. The results show that films containing yttrium consisted of Y2O3 with a small amount of carbidic carbon, those with copper and bismuth were mixtures of oxides with no detectable carbon, and those with calcium, strontium, and barium contained carbonates. Use of a partially fluorinated barium beta-diketonate gave films of BaF2 with small amounts of BaCO3.

AbstractMetalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) is a process used to manufacture electronic and optoelectronic devices that has traditionally lacked real-time growth monitoring and control. We have developed control strategies that incorporate monitors as real-time control sensors to improve MOCVD growth. An analog control system with an ultrasonic concentration monitor was used to reject bubbler concentration disturbances which exist under normal operation, during the growth of a four-period GaInAs/InP superlattice. Using X-ray diffraction, it was determined that the normally occurring concentration variations led to a wider GaInAs peak in the uncompensated growths as compared to the compensated growths, indicating that closed loop control improved GaInAs composition regulation. In further analysis of the X-ray diffraction curves, superlattice peaks were used as a measure of high crystalline quality. The compensated curve clearly displayed eight orders of satellite peaks, whereas the uncompensated curve shows little evidence of satellite peaks.

Rhombohedral Boron

Epitaxial rhombohedral boron nitride films were deposited on α-Al2O3(001) substrates by chemical vapor deposition, using trimethylboron, ammonia, and with a low concentration of silane in the growth flux. The depositions were performed at temperatures from 1200 to 1485 °C, pressures from 30 to 90 mbar and N/B ratios from 321 to 1286. The most favorable conditions for epitaxy were: a temperature of 1400 °C, N/B around 964, and pressures below 40 mbar. Analysis by thin film X-ray diffraction showed that most deposited films were polytype-pure epitaxial r-BN with an out-of-plane epitaxial relationship of r-BN[001]∥ w-AlN[001]∥ α-Al2O3[001] and with two in-plane relationships of r-BN[110]∥ w-AlN[110]∥ α-Al2O3[100] and r-BN[110]∥ w-AlN[110]∥ α-Al2O3[1̅00] due to twinning.

Abrupt Changes

AbstractHydrogenated microcrystalline silicon films have been obtained by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD) in a silane and hydrogen mixture at low pressure (<5 × 10-2 mbar). The structure of the samples and the residual stress were characterised by X- ray diffraction (XRD). Raman spectroscopy was used to estimate the volume fraction of the crystalline phase, which is in the range of 86 % to 98%. The stress values range between 150 and -140 MPa. The mechanical properties were studied by nanoindentation. Unlike monocrystalline wafers, there is no evidence of abrupt changes in the force-penetration plot, which have been attributed to a pressure-induced phase transition. The hardness was 12.5 GPa for the best samples, which is close to that obtained for silicon wafers.

AbstractThe crystal growth of SiC films on (100) Si and thermally oxidized Si (SiO2/Si) substrates by hot-mesh chemical vapor deposition (HMCVD) using monomethylsilane as a source gas was investigated. A mesh structure of hot tungsten (W) wire was used as a catalyzer. At substrate temperatures above 750°C and at a mesh temperature of 1600°C, 3C-SiC crystal was epitaxially grown on (100) Si substrates. From the X-ray rocking curve spectra of the (311) peak, SiC was also epitaxially grown in the substrate plane. On the basis of the X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements, on the other hand, the growth of (100)-oriented 3C-SiC films on SiO2/Si substrates was determined to be achieved at substrate temperatures of 750-800°C, while polycrystalline SiC films, at substrate temperatures above 850°C. From the dependence of growth rate on substrate temperature and W-mesh temperature, the growth mechanism of SiC crystal by HMCVD was discussed.

AbstractThe chemical vapor deposition of icosahedral boron arsenide, B12As2, on 6H-SiC (0001) (on and off-axis) substrates was studied using hydrides as the reactants. The effects of temperature and reactant flow rates on the phases deposited and the crystal quality were determined. The growth rate increased with temperature from 1.5μm/h at 1100°C to 5 μm/h at 1400°C and decreased thereafter. X-ray diffraction revealed that the deposits were amorphous when the deposition temperature is below 1150° C. Above 1150°C, smooth B12As2 films were formed on 6H-SiC substrates with an orientation of (0001) B12As2 parallel to 6H-SiC (0001). Raman spectroscopy confirmed the strongly c-axis oriented nature of B12As2 film on 6H-SiC.
