Problems solved by technology

The co-doping of nitrogen and aluminum significantly reduces the resistivity of the p-type zinc oxide film. However, in the prior art, the crystallinity of the prepared precursor film is poor, and sheet-like clusters are prone to appear, which reduces the hole-carrying current in the film. Subconcentration and mobility, resulting in high resistivity of the film, which is not conducive to the application of p-type zinc oxide film

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a nitrogen aluminum co-doping p type zinc oxide thin film. The method comprises the following steps that S1, high-purity zinc serves as a target material, a high-purity aluminum piece is placed on the target face, a substrate is placed above the target material, the distance between the substrate and the target material is adjustable, high-purity nitrogen gas is led to carry out radio frequency magnetron reactive sputtering, and the aluminum-contained zinc nitride thin film obtained through preparation serves as a precursor; S2, after the precursor is prepared, vacuumizing is carried out, high-purity oxygen is led to carry out in-situ low-pressure oxidization on a precursor thin film, and the nitrogen aluminum co-doping p type zinc oxide thin film is obtained through preparation. According to the method, on the premise that the performance of the precursor is optimized, the content of active nitrogen in the thin film is improved, and therefore the concentration and the migration rate of a hole carrier are increased, the resistance rate of the zinc oxide thin film is reduced, the resistance rate of the obtained zinc oxide thin film is reduced to 10.84W*cm, the concentration of the carrier reaches +4.65*1018cm-3, an optical band gap is 3.27 eV, and the crystalline state and the optical property of the thin film are good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optoelectronic technology, in particular to a method for preparing a nitrogen-aluminum co-doped p-type zinc oxide thin film. Background technique [0002] Due to the strong demand for short-wavelength light-emitting devices in fields such as information technology, optoelectronic technology, and aerospace, wide-bandgap semiconductors such as zinc oxide, gallium nitride, and silicon carbide have become research hotspots worldwide. Compared with other wide-bandgap semiconductor materials, zinc oxide has many advantages: the exciton binding energy is as high as 60 meV, which is conducive to obtaining efficient and stable room temperature exciton radiation; it can be prepared at a lower temperature, reducing the impurities introduced during material preparation and defects, and can greatly simplify the production process; it has higher thermal and chemical stability; it has stronger radiation resistance and can meet th...
