Epitaxial Growth of Atomically Flat AlN Layers on Sapphire Substrate by Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition
-
Abstract
AlN layers were grown on sapphire substrate by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) at 1200℃,5kPa.Atomically flat epilayers were obtained at a low V/III flow ratio without nitridation on the substrate.Atomic force microscopy (AFM) reveals a roughness of around 0.44nm for the atomically flat layers with an FWHM of (0002) X-ray diffraction rocking curve around 166" .Analysis of the growth results demonstrates that the polarity of the AlN layer and vapor phase reaction between NH3 and the Al-precursor are the primary factors affecting the AlN surface morphology.High quality n-doped AlGaN layers with high Al content were obtained using the as-grown atomically flat AlN layers,implying the good quality of the layers as epitaxial template.-
