This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Efficiency droop is a critical issue for the Group III-nitride based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to be competitive in the general lighting application. Carrier spill-over have been suggested as an origin of the efficiency droop, and an InAlN electron-blocking layer (EBL) is suggested as a replacement of the conventional AlGaN EBL for improved performance of LED. Optimum growth condition of InAlN layer was developed, and high quality InAlN layer was grown by using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). A LED structure employing an InAlN EBL was grown and its efficiency droop performance was compared with a LED with an AlGaN EBL. Characterization results suggested that the InAlN EBL delivers more effective electron blocking over AlGaN EBL. Hole-injection performance of the InAlN EBL was examined by growing and testing a series of LEDs with different InAlN EBL thickness. Analysis results by using extended quantum efficiency model shows that further improvement in the performance of LED requires better hole-injection performance of the InAlN EBL. Advanced EBL structures such as strain-engineered InAlN EBL and compositionally-graded InAlN EBLs for the delivery of higher hole-injection efficiency were also grown and tested.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Group III nitride semiconductor-based devices have emerged as the best candidates for handling higher power and frequency in recent years. Performance of various devices such AlGaN/ GaN high electron mobility transistors, GaN lasers and GaN LEDs are often hindered by self-heating of these materials and poor heat removal capabilities of the substrate materials. Chemical vapor deposited (CVD) diamond has demonstrated the best heat removal capability, when employed as the substrate material for GaN based high power devices, due to its high thermal conductivity. Diamond is either grown directly on the backside or bonded with GaN using an adhesion layer to extract excessive heat from the near junction region of these devices. In both cases, thermal resistance associated with the interface of diamond and GaN limits the effectiveness of the diamond layer. In this work, single crystal GaN has been grown using metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) directly on chemical vapor deposited diamond without any adhesion layer in a novel way which will mitigate thermal resistance between the near junction region of GaN devices and diamond substrate. The growth of GaN-on-diamond was achieved through a series of experiments and characterizations in various steps of the process.

Download or read book Chemical Vapor Deposition Growth and Characterization of Two Dimensional Hexagonal Boron Nitride written by Roland Yingjie Tay and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-20 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis focuses on the growth of a new type of two-dimensional (2D) material known as hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) using chemical vapor deposition (CVD). It also presents several significant breakthroughs in the authors’ understanding of the growth mechanism and development of new growth techniques, which are now well known in the field. Of particular importance is the pioneering work showing experimental proof that 2D crystals of h-BN can indeed be hexagonal in shape. This came as a major surprise to many working in the 2D field, as it had been generally assumed that hexagonal-shaped h-BN was impossible due to energy dynamics. Beyond growth, the thesis also reports on synthesis techniques that are geared toward commercial applications. Large-area aligned growth and up to an eightfold reduction in the cost of h-BN production are demonstrated. At present, all other 2D materials generally use h-BN as their dielectric layer and for encapsulation. As such, this thesis lays the cornerstone for using CVD 2D h-BN for this purpose.

Book excerpt: This book differs from previous volumes on wide bandgap semiconductors in that the emphasis is specifically on materials aspects related to electronic properties and devices. Solid advances are reported in the growth techniques of all three materials groups. In particular, the critical importance of surfaces, interfaces, doping, defects and impurities is demonstrated. Potential device applications ranging from new high-frequency, high-power all-solid-state devices to unique cold-cathode electronic devices are presented. Whilst the results demonstrate real promise for a wide range of new solid-state devices that are not feasible with current production materials, it is also evident that substantial progress in materials research is needed to fulfill the real potential of these applications. Critical issues related to the electronic potential of all three materials are addressed. Topics include: device technologies - devices, metallizations, etching, and implantation; bulk and bulk-like crystal growth; film growth; defects and structural properties; doping and electrical properties and optical and field-emission properties.

Book excerpt: Research advances in III-nitride semiconductor materials and device have led to an exponential increase in activity directed towards electronic and optoelectronic applications. There is also great scientific interest in this class of materials because they appear to form the first semiconductor system in which extended defects do not severely affect the optical properties of devices. The volume consists of chapters written by a number of leading researchers in nitride materials and device technology with the emphasis on the dopants incorporations, impurities identifications, defects engineering, defects characterization, ion implantation, irradiation-induced defects, residual stress, structural defects and phonon confinement. This unique volume provides a comprehensive review and introduction of defects and structural properties of GaN and related compounds for newcomers to the field and stimulus to further advances for experienced researchers. Given the current level of interest and research activity directed towards nitride materials and devices, the publication of the volume is particularly timely. Early pioneering work by Pankove and co-workers in the 1970s yielded a metal-insulator-semiconductor GaN light-emitting diode (LED), but the difficulty of producing p-type GaN precluded much further effort. The current level of activity in nitride semiconductors was inspired largely by the results of Akasaki and co-workers and of Nakamura and co-workers in the late 1980s and early 1990s in the development of p-type doping in GaN and the demonstration of nitride-based LEDs at visible wavelengths. These advances were followed by the successful fabrication and commercialization of nitride blue laser diodes by Nakamura et al at Nichia. The chapters contained in this volume constitutes a mere sampling of the broad range of research on nitride semiconductor materials and defect issues currently being pursued in academic, government, and industrial laboratories worldwide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last two decades, group III-nitride compound semiconductor materials have revolutionized modern optoelectronics and high frequency devices. In this work, III-nitride based compound semiconductor nanostructures with tailor-made optoelectronic and magnetic functionalities are investigated. The first research vector concerns design, synthesis and characterization of novel ferromagnetic materials based on III-nitrides involving manipulation of magnetic dopants as well as heteroepitaxy of ferromagnetic materials. Synthesis of III-nitride-GdN epitaxial, ferromagnetic nanocomposites is developed using the technique of plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Magnetic, structural and optical characteristics of these materials are tailored to yield nanocomposites which preserve the structural and semiconducting characteristics of GaN while integrating the ferromagnetic compound GdN. In the second part of this work, the growth, characterization and development of self-assembled III-nitride nanowire based ultraviolet light emitting diodes is explored. These devices are formed by a novel heterostructure which utilizes synthetic gradients in dipole moment per unit volume to mitigate many of the shortcomings of traditional thin film wide bandgap light emitting diode (LED) device designs for deep ultraviolet wavelengths. The optical and electronic characteristics of these devices are investigated by a number of spectroscopic methods. Combination of this heterostructure with the epitaxy of GdN on III-nitrides is found to yield a unique electrical device which allows electrical modulation of narrow linewidth, ultraviolet Gd intra-f-shell fluorescence at significantly lower voltages compared to existing technology. During the course of this work, a number of unique scientific instruments were developed to aid research efforts in the Myers group. The design, construction and operation of a wide spectral bandwidth, ultrafast semiconductor photoluminescence characterization system, a spectroscopic probe station for high throughput measurements of deep ultraviolet LED's and a modified closed cycle He cryostat for magnetic field dependent low level optoelectronic measurements is described. The dissertation closes with a discussion of various collaborative works of the author as well as a broad summary, conclusions and suggested future directions.
