摘要
We report on the phase separation of Ga-doped MgZnO layers grown by plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy. Based on X-ray diffraction, low-temperature (10 K) photoluminescence, and reflection high-energy electron diffraction observations, it is possible to classify the phase of Ga-doped MgZnO layers into three regions depending on the incorporated Ga concentration ([Ga]). Single-phase Mg0.1Zn0.9O layers are grown when [Ga] is less than I x 10(18) cm(-3). For [Ga] between I X 10(18) cm(-3) and I X 10(20) cm(-3), ZnO and Mg0.2Zn0.8O coexist, where electron transport is considered to be via two-channel conduction. When [Ga] exceeds I X 10(20) cm(-3), the Ga-doped MgZnO layers become polycrystalline, where carrier compensation takes place presumably due to grain boundaries. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd.
