  • In this paper, a selective area growth (SAG) of a GaN/AlGaN double heterostructure (DH) has been performed on r-plane sapphire substrate by using the mixed-source hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) with multi-sliding boat system. The SAG-GaN/AlGaN DH consists of GaN buffer layer, Te-doped AlGaN n-cladding layer, GaN active layer, Mg-doped AlGaN p-cladding layer, and Mg-doped GaN p-capping layer. The electroluminescence (EL) characteristics show an emission peak of wavelength, 439 nm with a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of approximately 0.64 eV at 20 mA. The I-V measurements show that the turn-on voltage of the SAG-GaN/AlGaN DH is 3.4 V at room temperature. We found that the mixed-source HVPE method with a multi-sliding boat system was one of promising growth methods for III-Nitride LEDs.

AlGaN/GaInN로부터 방출되는 유도방출 광은 임계치 이상에서 TE-mode로 편광 되었다.

  • We report the properties of optically pumped stimulated emission at room temperature (RT) from column-III nitride semiconductors of GaN, AlGaN/GaN double heterostructure (DH) and AlGaN/GaInN DH which prepared on a sapphire substrate using an AIN buffer-layer by the nietalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) method. The peak wavelength of the stimulated emission at RT from AIGaN/GaN DH is 369nm and the threshold of excitation pumping power density (P$\_$th/) is about 84kW/cm$\^$2/, and they from AlGaN/GaInN DH are 402nm and 130kW/cm$\^$2/ at the pumping power density of 200kW/cm$\^$2/, respectively. The P$\_$th/ of AIGaN/GaN and AlGaN/GaInN DHs are lower than the single layers of GaN and GaInN due to optical confinement within the active layers of GaN and GaInN, respectively.

  • In this paper, we developed a two-dimensional numerical simulator which could analyze the stripe geometry semiconductor laser diodes by modifying the commercial semiconductor device simulator, MEDICI. In order to study the characteristics of semiconductor laser diodes, it is necessary to solve the Helmholtz wave equation and photon rate equation in addition to the basic semiconductor equations. Also the recombination rates due to the spontaneous and the stimulated emissions should be included, which are very important recombination mechanisms in semiconductor laser diodes. Therefore, we included the solution routines which analyzed the Helmholtz wave equation and the photon rate equation and two important recombination rates to simulate the semiconductor laser diodes. Then we simulated the gain-guiding and index-guiding DH(Double Heterostructure) semiconductor laser diodes to verify the validity of the implemented functions. The results obtained from simulation are well consistent with the previously published ones. This allows us to know the operating characteristics of DH laser diodes and is expected to use as a tool for optimum design.

  • The selective area growth light emitting diode on GaN substrate was grown using mixed-source HVPE method with multi-sliding boat system. The GaN substrate was grown using mixed-source HVPE system. Te-doped AlGaN/AlGaN/Mg-doped AlGaN/Mg-doped GaN multi-layers were grown on the GaN substrate. The appearance of epi-layers and the thickness of the DH was evaluated by SEM measurement. The DH metallization was performed by e-beam evaporator. n-type metal and p-type metal were evaporated Ti/Al and Ni/Au, respectively. At the I-V measurement, the turn-on voltage is 3 V and the differential resistance is 13 Ω. It was found that the SAG-LED grown on GaN substrate using mixed-source HVPE method with multi-sliding boat system could be applied for developing high quality LEDs.

  • In this paper, we report on the growth and optical characteristics of white-LED without fluorescent material. The growth of DH(double heterostructure) with AlGaN active layer was performed on a n-GaN/(0001) $Al_{2}O_{3}$ by the mixed-source HVPE and multi-sliding boat. The CRI(color rendering index) of packaging device charged in the range 72-93 with CIE chromaticity coordinates(x=$0.26{\sim}0.34$, y=$0.31{\sim}0.40$). And CCT(correlated color temperature) values was measured $5126{\sim}10406K$ with increasing injection current. The CIE point of conventional phosphor white LED shifts blue region, but cm point of non-phosphor white LED shifts opposite direction. These results show the mixed-source HVPE can be possible to newly fabricate method of phosphor free white LED with high CRI value.

  • The AlGaN layer has direct wide bandgaps ranging from 3.4 to 6.2 eV. Nowadays, it is becoming more important to fabricate optical devices in an UV region for the many applications. The high quality AlGaN layer is necessary to establish the UV optical devices. However, the growth of AlGaN layer on GaN layer is difficult due to the lattice mismatch and difference thermal expansion coefficient between GaN layer and AlGaN layer. In this paper, we attempted to grow the LED structure on GaN template by mixed-source HVPE method with multi-sliding boat system. We tried to find the optical and lattice transition of active layer by control the Al content in mixed-source. For the growth of epi layer, the HCl and $NH_3$ gas were flowed over the mixed-source and the carrier gas was $N_2$. The temperature of source zone and growth zone was stabled at 900 and $1090^{\circ}C$, respectively. After the growth, we performed the x-ray diffraction (XRD) and electro luminescence (EL) measurement.
