    摘要: A method of fabricating a rare earth oxide buffered III-N on silicon wafer including providing a crystalline silicon substrate, depositing a rare earth oxide structure on the silicon substrate including one or more layers of single crystal rare earth oxide, and depositing a layer of single crystal III-N material on the rare earth oxide structure so as to form an interface between the rare earth oxide structure and the layer of single crystal III-N material. The layer of single crystal III-N material produces a tensile stress at the interface and the rare earth oxide structure has a compressive stress at the interface dependent upon a thickness of the rare earth oxide structure. The rare earth oxide structure is grown with a thickness sufficient to provide a compressive stress offsetting at least a portion of the tensile stress at the interface to substantially reduce bowing in the wafer.

    摘要: III-N material grown on a buffer on a substrate that includes one of a single crystal silicon or a single crystal sapphire. A buffer of single crystal alloy, including one of ErxAl1-xN or (RE1yRE21-y)xAl1-xN, is positioned on the substrate. A layer of single crystal III-N material is positioned on the surface of the buffer and the single crystal alloy has a lattice constant substantially crystal lattice matched to the layer of single crystal III-N material. When the III-N material is GaN, the x in the formula for the alloy varies from less than 1 adjacent the substrate to greater than or equal to 0.249 adjacent the layer of single crystal GaN.

    摘要: A heterostructure grown on a silicon substrate includes a single crystal rare earth oxide template positioned on a silicon substrate, the template being substantially crystal lattice matched to the surface of the silicon substrate. A heterostructure is positioned on the template and defines at least one heterojunction at an interface between a III-N layer and a III-III-N layer. The template and the heterostructure are crystal matched to induce an engineered predetermined tensile strain at the at least one heterojunction. A single crystal rare earth oxide dielectric layer is grown on the heterostructure so as to induce an engineered predetermined compressive stress in the single crystal rare earth oxide dielectric layer and a tensile strain in the III-III-N layer. The tensile strain in the III-III-N layer and the compressive stress in the REO layer combining to induce a piezoelectric field leading to higher carrier concentration in 2DEG at the heterojunction.

    摘要: A pumped sensor system includes a substrate with a first layer formed thereon and doped for a first type conduction and a second layer doped for a second type conduction, whereby the first and second layers form a silicon light detector at an up-conversion wavelength. A ternary rare earth oxide is formed on the second layer and crystal lattice matched to the second layer. The oxide is a crystalline bulk oxide with a controlled percentage of an up-conversion component and a majority component. The majority component is insensitive to any of pump, sense, or up-conversion wavelengths and the up-conversion component is selected to produce energy at the up-conversion wavelength in response to receiving energy at the pump and sense wavelengths. The layer of oxide defines a light input area sensitive to a pump wavelength and a light input area sensitive to a sense wavelength.
