Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a nano-roughened composite patterned sapphire substrate for epitaxial growth of GaN crystals and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of semiconductor crystal preparation. Background technique [0002] GaN has the characteristics of wide direct bandgap, high electron saturation velocity, high breakdown electric field and high thermal conductivity, and has great application potential in the fields of optoelectronics and microelectronics. GaN and other Group III nitrides (InN, AlN) can form a ternary or quaternary solid solution, its forbidden band width is from 0.7eV to 6.28eV, and its emission wavelength is adjustable from infrared to ultraviolet. Get widely used. [0003] Due to the lack of large-scale GaN substrates, GaN thin films are generally grown by heteroepitaxy on substrates such as sapphire, silicon carbide, and silicon. Sapphire is currently the most commonly used substrate for commercial ...
