摘要:
A substrate and method for growing a semi-conductive crystal on an alloy film such as (AIN)x(SiC)(1-x) without any buffer layer is disclosed. The (AIN)x(SiC)(1-x) alloy film can be formed on a SiC substrate by a vapor deposition process using AIN and SiC powder as starting materials. The (AIN)x(SiC)(1-x) alloy film provides a better lattice match for GaN or SiC epitaxial growth and reduces defects in epitaxially grown GaN with better lattice match and chemistry.

A nuclear radiation detection system using narrowband UV crystal filters is disclosed. Since the photons produced during the decay of β- and γ-radiation can be detected in the spectral range of about 200-350 nm (the ultraviolet range), UV filter based photo sensors are utilized for detection. The nuclear radiation detection system comprises an optical assembly capable of focusing on a source of radiation, a UV filter assembly having a narrowband UV crystal filter and positioned to receive light transmitted through the optical assembly, and a light detector positioned to receive light transmitted through the UV filter assembly. The narrowband UV crystal filter is fabricated from crystals selected from the group consisting of nickel fluorosilicate, nickel fluoroborate, and potassium nickel sulfate. The nickel fluorosilicate, nickel fluoroborate, and potassium nickel sulfate may be doped to achieve even narrower band filter. The radiation detection system can be used to monitor contamination in a nuclear plant or a nuclear waste dump site. It may also be used for surveillance of contamination in case of a nuclear accident.

A process is provided for fabricating a semiconductor device having a germanium nanofilm layer that is selectively deposited on a silicon substrate in discrete regions or patterns. A semiconductor device is also provided having a germanium film layer that is disposed in desired regions or having desired patterns that can be prepared in the absence of etching and patterning the germanium film layer. A process is also provided for preparing a semiconductor device having a silicon substrate having one conductivity type and a germanium nanofilm layer of a different conductivity type. Semiconductor devices are provided having selectively grown germanium nanofilm layer, such as diodes including light emitting diodes, photodetectors, and like. The method can also be used to make advanced semiconductor devices such as CMOS devices, MOSFET devices, and the like.

A method for growing a SiC-containing film on a Si substrate is disclosed. The SiC-containing film can be formed on a Si substrate by, for example, plasma sputtering, chemical vapor deposition, or atomic layer deposition. The thus-grown SiC-containing film provides an alternative to expensive SiC wafers for growing semiconductor crystals.

Crystals having a narrowband transmission window in the UV range and methods for producing such crystals are disclosed. The method comprises the steps of preparing a saturated nutrient solution of a nickel compound and a dopant salt; and incubating the nutrient solution under conditions suitable for crystal growth. The nickel compound is nickel silicon fluoride, nickel fluoroborate, or potassium nickel sulfate. The dopant salt is a salt of cobalt, calcium, barium, strontium, lead, copper, germanium, praseodymium, neodymium, zinc, lithium, potassium, sodium, rubidium, or cesium. The doped nickel compounds crystals have a narrow transmission window in the UV range and can be used as filters for optical sensors in applications such as the passive missile approach warning systems.
