According to the report of people such as I.Hotovy (I.Hotovy, J.Huran, J. et al., Deposition and properties of nickel oxide films produced by DC reactive magnetron sputtering, Vacuum, 1998, 51 (2): 157.), the NiO film prepared by magnetron reactive sputtering, when the O in the mixed atmosphere 2 When the ratio increases, the resistivity of the film will increase, while the light transmittance will decrease. In order to make the NiO film have high electrical conductivity and light transmittance at the same time, the relative oxygen partial pressure O 2 / (O 2 +Ar) = 50-70% of the optimal amount. The chamber background vacuum degree before sputtering is greater than 5×10 -4 Pa, the sputtering pressure is 0.5-1.5Pa, and the sputtering power is 100-250W. Before coating, pre-sputter for 10 min to remove impurities on the target surface. NiO film is plated on the substrate with ZnO thin film....

Abstract

The invention discloses an n -zinc oxide/ p- nickel oxide heterogeneous pn junction ultraviolet laser diode and a preparation method thereof. The heterogeneous pn junction diode at least comprises a pn junction, a substrate and an ohm contacting electrode, wherein the pn junction is the heterogeneous pn junction by plating a p-type nickel oxide film on an n-type zinc oxide film; and the substrate is a sapphire plated with n-type GaN. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly preparing the n-type ZnO film layer on the substrate by the radio frequency magnetron sputtering technology; then sputtering a p-type NiO film layer on the n-type ZnO film layer to form the heterogeneity pn junction; finally manufacturing a pn junction electrode by a sputtering method or a thermal evaporation method; sputtering gold electrodes or platinum electrodes or nickel platinum electrodes or ITO electrodes on the NiO surface; plating indium electrodes or aluminum electrodes or gold electrodes on the GaN or the edge of ZnO; and making the electrodes form ohm contact after annealing alloying.

Background technique [0002] Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a new type II-VI direct bandgap wide bandgap semiconductor material. The band gap of ZnO is 3.37eV at room temperature, and the emission wavelength is equivalent to the wavelength of near-ultraviolet light (370nm), which is very suitable for making short-wavelength light-emitting and photosensitive devices. ZnO is similar to GaN in terms of lattice structure, unit cell parameters and forbidden band width, and has a higher melting point and greater exciton binding energy than GaN, and has lower photoluminescence and stimulated emission. Threshold value and good electromechanical coupling characteristics, thermal stability and chemical stability. Therefore, it has great potential in the applic...
