    摘要: A method for fabricating a III-nitride based semiconductor device, including (a) growing one or more buffer layers on or above a semi-polar or non-polar GaN substrate, wherein the buffer layers are semi-polar or non-polar III-nitride buffer layers; and (b) doping the buffer layers so that a number of crystal defects in III-nitride device layers formed on or above the doped buffer layers is not higher than a number of crystal defects in III-nitride device layers formed on or above one or more undoped buffer layers. The doping can reduce or prevent formation of misfit dislocation lines and additional threading dislocations. The thickness and/or composition of the buffer layers can be such that the buffer layers have a thickness near or greater than their critical thickness for relaxation. In addition, one or more (AlInGaN) or III-nitride device layers can be formed on or above the buffer layers.

    摘要: A III-nitride photovoltaic device structure and method for fabricating the III-nitride photovoltaic device that increases the light collection efficiency of the III-nitride photovoltaic device. The III-nitride photovoltaic device includes one or more III-nitride device layers, and the III-nitride photovoltaic device functions by collecting light that is incident on the back-side of the III-nitride device layers. The III-nitride device layers are grown on a substrate, wherein the III-nitride device layers are exposed when the substrate is removed and the exposed III-nitride device layers are then intentionally roughened to enhance their light collection efficiency. The collection of the incident light via the back-side of the device simplifies the fabrication of the multiple junctions in the device. The III-nitride photovoltaic device may include grid-like contacts, transparent or semi-transparent contacts, or reflective contacts.
