    摘要: A III-V nitride, e.g., GaN, substrate including a (0001) surface offcut from the direction predominately toward the direction or the direction, at the offcut angle in a range that is from about 0.2 to about 10 degrees (FIGURE 9). The surface has a RMS roughness measured by 50 x 50 mircometers squared AFM scan that is less than 1 nm, and a dislocation density that is less than 3E6 cm-2. The substrate can be formed by offcut slicing of a corresponding boule or wafer blank, by offcut lapping or growth of the substrate body on a corresponding vicinal heteroepitaxial substrate, e.g., offcut sapphire. The substrate is usefully employed for homoepitaxial deposition in the fabrication III-V nitride-based microelectronic and optoelectronic devices.

    摘要: A Group III-V nitride microelectronic device structure including a delta doped layer (24) and/or a doped superlattice. A delta doping method is described, including the steps of: depositing semiconductor material on a substrate by a first epitaxial film growth process; terminating the deposition of semiconductor material on the substrate to present an epitaxial film surface; delta doping the semiconductor material at the epitaxial film surface, to form a delta doping layer thereon; terminating the delta doping; resuming deposition of semiconductor material to deposit semiconductor material on the delta doping layer, in a second epitaxial film growth process; and continuing the semiconductor material second epitaxial film growth process to a predetermined extent, to form a doped microelectronic device structure, wherein the delta doping layer (24) is internalized in semiconductor material deposited in the first and second epitaxial film growth processes.
