Abstract

The invention discloses a method for growing a semi-polar GaN membrane based on an Al2O3 substrate with m sides and mainly solves the problems that the conventional semi-polar material has poorer quality and non-attractive surface appearance. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) arranging an Al2O3 substrate with m sides in to an MOCVD (Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition) reaction chamber, introducing the mixed gas of hydrogen and ammonia to the reaction chamber, and thermally processing the substrate; (2) growing a low-temperature AlN (Aluminium Nitride) layer with thickness of 20 to 200 nm and temperature of 500 to 650 DEG C on the Al2O3 substrate with m sides; (3) growing a high-temperature AlN layer with thickness of 50 to 200 nm and temperature of 1000 to 1150 DEG C on the low-temperature AlN layer; (4) growing a high-temperature AlGaN layer with thickness of 50 to 500 nm and temperature of 1000 to 1150 DEG C on the high-temperature AlN layer; (5) growing a semi-polar GaN layer with high V-III ratio, the thickness of 50 to 1000 nm and the temperature of 1000 to 1150 DEG C on the high-temperature GaN layer; and (6) growing a semi-polar GaN layer with low V-III ratio, the thickness of 1000 to 10000 nm and the temperature of 1000 to 1150 DEG C on the semi-polar GaN layer with high V-III ratio. The invention has the advantages of simple process and little fault, and is applied to manufacturing the semi-polar GaN light-emitting diodes and the lasers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microelectronics, and relates to a method for growing semiconductor materials, in particular to an m-plane Al 2 o 3 The epitaxial growth method of a semipolar GaN semiconductor material on a substrate can be used to manufacture a semipolar GaN-based semiconductor device. technical background [0002] Gallium nitride and III-V nitrides have made great progress in the fields of optoelectronics and microelectronics. This material can work at high temperature and in relatively harsh environments, and has broad application prospects. It is currently a research hotspot. Conventional gallium nitride is grown on the polar c-plane. The excellent performance of GaN-based devices is mainly due to the existence of high-density and high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the AlGaN / GaN heterojunction interface. The 2DEG results from the large conduction band discontinuity in the heterojunction and the st...
