Description

γ-LiAlO 2/ α-Al 2O 3Flexible substrate material and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of γ-LiAlO 2/ α-Al 2O 3Flexible substrate material and preparation method.γ-LiAlO 2/ α-Al 2O 3Flexible substrate material is mainly as the epitaxial growth of InN-GaN base blue-light semiconductor.
Background technology
The broad-band gap III-V group iii v compound semiconductor material that with GaN is representative is receiving increasing concern, they will be at blue, green light LED (LEDs) and laser diode (LDs), high density information read-write, subsurface communication, deep quest, laser printing, biology and engineering in medicine, and ultrahigh speed microelectronic component and hyperfrequency microwave device aspect are with a wide range of applications.
Because GaN fusing point height, hardness is big, saturated vapor pressure is high, so want the GaN body monocrystalline of growing large-size to need high temperature and high pressure, Polish high pressure research center has made just under the high pressure of 1600 ℃ high temperature and 20kbar that bar is wide to be the GaN body monocrystalline of 5mm.Current, the technology of GaN body monocrystalline of growing large-size more immature, and growth is with high costs, from practical application quite long distance is arranged still.
White gem crystal (α-Al 2O 3), be easy to preparation, low price, and have the good characteristics such as high-temperature stability, α-Al 2O 3It is at present the most frequently used InN-GaN base epitaxial substrate material (referring to Jpn.J.Appl.Phys., the 36th volume,, the 1568th page in 1997).
Lithium aluminate (γ-LiAlO 2) be the InN-GaN base epitaxial substrate material that just came into one's own in recent years, because the lattice mismatch of itself and GaN epitaxial film is quite little, have only 1.4%, this makes it be expected to become a kind of quite desirable GaN epitaxial substrate material (referring to U.S. Pat P6218280, Kryliouk Olga, Anderson Tim, Chai Bruce, " Method and apparatus forproducing group-III nitrides ").
Above-mentioned formerly technology substrate (α-Al 2O 3Or γ-LiAlO 2) the remarkable shortcoming that exists is: (1) is with α-Al 2O 3Make substrate, α-Al 2O 3And the lattice mismatch between the GaN makes the GaN film of preparation have higher dislocation density and a large amount of point defects up to 13.8%; (2) because LiAlO 2The non-stoichiometric volatilization easily takes place under the melt high temperature, and crystal growth difficulty is difficult to obtain large scale, high-quality LiAlO 2Monocrystal, and the process of substrate has caused a large amount of raw-material wastes.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is: utilize Li 2O and α-Al 2O 3Solid phase reaction preparation have LiAlO 2Tectal α-Al 2O 3Flexible substrate γ-LiAlO 2/ α-Al 2O 3, be used for the high-quality GaN of epitaxial growth.
The epitaxial growth of GaN is mainly at α-Al at present 2O 3Carry out on the foreign substrate.Yet α-Al 2O 3And have bigger lattice mismatch and thermal mismatching between the GaN, cause producing in the GaN epitaxial film higher dislocation density and a large amount of point defects.In order to reduce the dislocation density in the GaN epitaxial film, a kind of so-called flexible substrate technology is arisen at the historic moment.Flexible substrate is to propose according to distribution and the equilibrium relation of elastic strain energy between " substrate " and epitaxial loayer.Concerning the infinite thickness substrate, carry out heteroepitaxy under mismatch condition, there is a critical value in the thickness of epitaxial loayer, when the thickness of epitaxial loayer during less than critical value, lattice mismatch in the system is mainly by the epitaxial loayer elastic strain, and storage elasticity can compensate in epitaxial loayer.When epitaxy layer thickness during greater than critical value, the lattice mismatch in the system then can cause the generation of epitaxial loayer Dislocations.If the thickness of substrate is limited, then the critical thickness of epitaxial loayer can increase.So-called " flexible substrate " be very little " substrate " of thickness just, and this thickness is more little, and the critical thickness of epitaxial loayer is big more.If substrate is very thin, then owing to the effect of " image force ", even dislocation has taken place in the system, dislocation also mainly is distributed in " substrate ".Recently, the LiAlO of Tetragonal 2(be γ-LiAlO 2) obtained widely research, γ-LiAlO as the epitaxial substrate of GaN 2With the lattice mismatch of GaN epitaxial film littler (1.4%), well below α-Al 2O 3With the lattice mismatch (13.8%) of GaN epitaxial film, this so that it be expected to become and be better than α-Al 2O 3The GaN epitaxial substrate.Based on above consideration, in key of the present invention be: utilize pulsed laser deposition (PLD:pulsed laser deposition) technology and Li 2O and α-Al 2O 3Between solid phase reaction, at α-Al 2O 3Generate γ-LiAlO on the substrate 2Cover layer, the recycling deionized water dissolving washes unreacted Li 2O, thus γ-LiAlO obtained 2/ α-Al 2O 3Flexible substrate.Here, α-Al 2O 3Both participate in solid phase reaction as reactant, worked again the γ-LiAlO that supports on it 2The effect of thin layer.Flexible substrate (γ-the LiAlO of this kind structure 2/ α-Al 2O 3) be suitable for the epitaxial growth of high-quality GaN.
The present invention mainly comprises two steps: at first be α-Al 2O 3Li on the substrate 2The O thin film technology is α-Al then 2O 3γ-LiAlO on the substrate 2Tectal preparation.
