Popis: | In MOCVD growth, two key factors for growing a p-type structure, when the modulation growth or delta-doping technique is used, include Mg memory and diffusion. With high-temperature growth (>900 degree C), doped Mg can diffuse into the under-layer. Also, due to the high-pressure growth and growth chamber coating in MOCVD, plenty Mg atoms exist in the growth chamber for a duration after Mg supply is ended. In this situation, Mg doping continues in the following designated un-doped layers. In this paper, we demonstrate the study results of Mg preflow, memory, and diffusion. The results show that pre-flow of Mg into the growth chamber can lead to a significantly higher Mg doping concentration in growing a p-GaN layer. In other words, a duration for Mg buildup is required for high Mg incorporation. Based on SIMS study, we find that with the pre-flow growth, a high- and a low-doping p-GaN layer are formed. The doping concentration difference between the two layers is about 10 times. The thickness of the high- (low-) doping layer is about 40 (65) nm. The growth of the high-doping layer starts 10-15 min after Mg supply starts (Mg buildup time). The diffusion length of Mg into the AlGaN layer beneath (Mg content reduced to |
