摘要
Plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth of high-quality GaN-compounds was attempted. Zinc blende GaNxAs1-x layers were grown on GaAs(001) substrates, while high-quality wurtzite GaN layers were grown on sapphire(0001) substrates. By optimizing the epitaxial growth for GaN and AlxGa1-xN layers on sapphire(0001) substrates, high-quality materials were obtained. Using this know-how, piezo-induced AlGaN/GaN heterostructure field-effect transistor (HFET) structures were grown. The formation of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the interface effectively improved the bulk mobility by a factor of three.
