    摘要: An engineered substrate structure includes a ceramic substrate having a front surface characterized by a plurality of peaks. The ceramic substrate includes a polycrystalline material. The engineered substrate structure also includes a planarization layer comprising a planarization layer material and coupled to the front surface of the ceramic substrate. The planarization layer defines fill regions filled with the planarization layer material between adjacent peaks of the plurality of peaks on the front surface of the ceramic substrate. The engineered substrate structure further includes a barrier shell encapsulating the ceramic substrate and the planarization layer, wherein the barrier shell has a front side and a back side, a bonding layer coupled to the front side of the barrier shell, a single crystal layer coupled to the bonding layer, and a conductive layer coupled to the back side of the barrier shell.

    摘要: A method of forming doped regions by diffusion in gallium nitride materials includes providing a substrate structure including a gallium nitride layer and forming a mask on the gallium nitride layer. The mask exposes one or more portions of a top surface of the gallium nitride layer. The method also includes depositing a magnesium-containing gallium nitride layer on the one or more portions of the top surface of the gallium nitride layer and concurrently with depositing the magnesium-containing gallium nitride layer, forming one or more magnesium-doped regions in the gallium nitride layer by diffusing magnesium into the gallium nitride layer through the one or more portions. The magnesium-containing gallium nitride layer provides a source of magnesium dopants. The method further includes removing the magnesium-containing gallium nitride layer and removing the mask.

    摘要: Gallium nitride wafer substrate for solid state lighting devices, and associated systems and methods. A method for making an SSL device substrate in accordance with one embodiment of the disclosure includes forming multiple crystals carried by a support member, with the crystals having an orientation selected to facilitate formation of gallium nitride. The method can further include forming a volume of gallium nitride carried by the crystals, with the selected orientation of the crystals at least partially controlling a crystal orientation of the gallium nitride, and without bonding the gallium nitride, as a unit, to the support member. In other embodiments, the number of crystals can be increased by a process that includes annealing a region in which the crystals are present, etching the region to remove crystals having an orientation other than the selected orientation, and/or growing the crystals having the selected orientation.
