Synthesis of erbium-doped gallium nitride crystals by the ammonothermal route

Add time:07/27/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

Gallium nitride (GaN) crystals doped with erbium were grown via the ammonothermal processes on hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) GaN seeds. The crystallization conducted in alkaline solutions of supercritical ammonia and potassium azide (KN3) at temperatures between 525 and 550 °C yielded growth rates of 15 and 50 μm day on the gallium and nitrogen polar faces, respectively. X-ray diffraction studies indicated single-crystalline growth on the N-polar surface while the Ga-polar surfaces resulted in polycrystalline growth. Photoluminescence spectra acquired at 15 K showed optical transitions corresponding to the inner shell transitions of erbium centers as well as a strong band edge and blue luminescence peaks centered at 3.495 and 2.90 eV, respectively. The incorporation of unintentional impurities, such as oxygen, was found by secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) to be mitigated to ∼1×1019 and ∼7×1019 cm−3 on the gallium and nitrogen polar faces, respectively.
