Comparing high-purity c- and m-plane GaN layers for Schottky barrier diodes grown homoepitaxially by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy
JAPANESE JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS(2018)
摘要
GaN vertical Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) were grown on m-plane GaN substrates by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) using a quartz-free flow channel (FC). The use of the quartz-free FC reduced the impurity concentrations of silicon and carbon by factors of 2 and 10, respectively, compared with the concentrations obtained using a conventional reactor with a quartz FC. The oxygen concentration was found to decrease with increasing the layer thickness. We achieved the same impurity concentration for the epitaxial layers grown on m-plane GaN substrates as for those grown on c-plane GaN substrates under the same growth conditions. A high resistivity of unintentionally doped GaN was achieved by decreasing the impurity concentration. Additionally, for the further understanding of the low impurity concentration in the m-plane GaN, the n-type GaN was inserted between the m-plane GaN substrate and the drift layer. The results revealed that the c-and m-plane breakdown voltages and leakage currents have similar tendencies. (C) 2018 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
