摘要:
A method for improved growth of a semipolar (Al,In,Ga,B)N semiconductor thin film using an intentionally miscut substrate. Specifically, the method comprises intentionally miscutting a substrate, loading a substrate into a reactor, heating the substrate under a flow of nitrogen and/or hydrogen and/or ammonia, depositing an InxGa1−xN nucleation layer on the heated substrate, depositing a semipolar nitride semiconductor thin film on the InxGa1−xN nucleation layer, and cooling the substrate under a nitrogen overpressure.

摘要:
An off-axis cut of a nonpolar III-nitride wafer towards a polar (−c) orientation results in higher polarization ratios for light emission than wafers without such off-axis cuts. A 5° angle for an off-axis cut has been confirmed to provide the highest polarization ratio (0.9) than any other examined angles for off-axis cuts between 0 and 27°.

A method of obtaining a hexagonal würtzite type epitaxial layer with a low impurity concentration of alkali-metal by using a hexagonal würtzite substrate possessing a higher impurity concentration of alkali-metal, wherein a surface of the substrate upon which the epitaxial layer is grown has a crystal plane which is different from the c-plane.
摘要:
An increase in the Indium (In) content in light-emitting layers of light-emitting diode (LED) structures prepared on nonpolar III-nitride substrates result in higher polarization ratios for light emission than LED structures containing lesser In content. Polarization ratios should be higher than 0.7 at wavelengths longer than 470 nm.

A yellow Light Emitting Diode (LED) with a peak emission wavelength in the range 560-580 nm is disclosed. The LED is grown on one or more III-nitride-based semipolar planes and an active layer of the LED is composed of indium (In) containing single or multi-quantum well structures. The LED quantum wells have a thickness in the range 2-7 nm. A multi-color LED or white LED comprised of at least one semipolar yellow LED is also disclosed.
摘要:
A method of fabricating an optoelectronic device, comprising growing an active layer of the device on an oblique surface of a suitable material, wherein the oblique surface comprises a facetted surface. The present invention also discloses a method of fabricating the facetted surfaces. One fabrication process comprises growing an epitaxial layer on a suitable material, etching the epitaxial layer through a mask to form the facets having a specific crystal orientation, and depositing one or more active layers on the facets. Another method comprises growing a layer of material using a lateral overgrowth technique to produce a facetted surface, and depositing one or more active layers on the facetted surfaces. The facetted surfaces are typically semipolar planes.

A nonpolar III-nitride film grown on a miscut angle of a substrate, in order to suppress the surface undulations, is provided. The surface morphology of the film is improved with a miscut angle towards an a-axis direction comprising a 0.15° or greater miscut angle towards the a-axis direction and a less than 30° miscut angle towards the a-axis direction.
