CAO Yue, YU Jia-qi, ZHANG Li-dong etc. Epitaxial Growth of BGaN Films by MOCVD[J]. Chinese Journal of Luminescence, 2020,41(4): 357-363 DOI: 10.3788/fgxb20204104.0357.
we used metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) technology to carry out epitaxial growth of BGaN films on sapphire substrates. We studied the influence of growth thickness
temperature
pressure and B/Ⅲ ratio on the boron content of the BGaN films. X-ray diffraction measurement results demonstrate that lowering the growth temperature
pressure and increasing the B/Ⅲ ratio are conductive to improving the incorporation efficiency of B in BGaN films. At the growth conditions of 800 ℃
30 kPa and B/Ⅲ ratio of 30%
the B content of the BGaN film is up to the highest with 6.1%.
