The preparation of the doped GaN thin films by HVPE

HVPE에 의한 불순물이 첨가된 GaN 박막의 제작

The p-GaN fins doped with the impurity of Zn were grown on n-GaN films to prevent the defects from the lattice mismatch with sapphire substrates by HVPE. For growth of the high quality n-GaN, the optimized conditions were at first deduced from the results of various HCI gas flow rates and growth temperatures. On the basis of these conditions, p-GaN films were grown and investigated of the characteristics. The FWHM of the double crystal rocking curve of n-GaN was decreased and the hexagonal phases on the surface of GaN films were tend to be vivid with the inoement of HCI gas flow rates. Finally the n-type GaN films with FWHM of 648arcsec were obtained at 10cc/min of HCI gas. As the GaN films were grown with the above conditions, Zn was introduced in the form of vapor as a dopant for p-GaN films. But when Zn vaporized at 77$0^{\circ}C$ was doped to the films, the crystallites of Zn were distributed uniformly on the surface of the GaN film due to the over-doped.
