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.

摘要:
A method for growth and fabrication of semipolar (Ga, Al, In, B)N thin films, heterostructures, and devices, comprising identifying desired material properties for a particular device application, selecting a semipolar growth orientation based on the desired material properties, selecting a suitable substrate for growth of the selected semipolar growth orientation, growing a planar semipolar (Ga, Al, In, B)N template or nucleation layer on the substrate, and growing the semipolar (Ga, Al, In, B)N thin films, heterostructures or devices on the planar semipolar (Ga, Al, In, B)N template or nucleation layer. The method results in a large area of the semipolar (Ga, Al, In, B)N thin films, heterostructures, and devices being parallel to the substrate surface.

摘要:
A method for ensuring the structural integrity of III-nitride opto-electronic or opto-mechanical air-gap nano-structured devices, comprising (a) performing ion beam implantation in a region of the III-nitride opto-electronic and opto-mechanical air-gap nano-structured device, wherein the milling significantly locally modifies a material property in the region to provide the structural integrity; and (b) performing a band-gap selective photo-electro-chemical (PEC) etch on the III-nitride opto-electronic and opto-mechanical air-gap nano-structured device. The method can be used to fabricate distributed Bragg reflectors or photonic crystals, for example. The method also comprises the suitable design of distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) structures for the PEC etching and the ion-beam treatment, the suitable design of photonic crystal distributed Bragg reflector (PCDBR) structures for PEC etching and the ion-beam treatment, the suitable placement of protection layers to prevent the ion-beam damage to optical activity and PEC etch selectivity, and a suitable annealing treatment for curing the material quality after the ion-beam treatment.
