Problems solved by technology

Although these methods can improve the crystal quality of AlN epitaxial films to a certain extent, it is often difficult to obtain AlN epitaxial films that are completely crack-free, atomically flat, and have low dislocation density at the same time with high repeatability.
[0005] There are also methods in the prior art that can prepare AlN epitaxial thin films that are completely crack-free, atomically flat, and have low dislocation density, but they often have the disadvantages of narrow process window and poor repeatability
In addition, although the preparation of AlN substrates by physical vapor transport (PVT), or the homogeneous epitaxy scheme prepared by PVT combined with hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE), can better achieve the above goals, but the cost is too high, and the size of AlN Defects that are too small to be industrially produced on a large scale

Embodiment 1

[0048] Embodiment 1 (taking the preparation of sapphire substrate as an example)

[0049] S1: Prepare a concave patterned sapphire substrate, the specific steps are:

[0050] 1) First use PECVD to deposit SiO with a thickness of 200nm on a 2-inch c-plane sapphire substrate 2 , and then spin coat TU7-220 glue with a thickness of 300nm.

[0051] 2) Using a nano imprinter The pattern transfer polymer on the embossing template (the table size is 400nm) with a period of 1.2 microns and a circular hole diameter of 800nm ​​is placed on the polymer, and then the pattern on the polymer is embossed on the embossing glue under the condition of ultraviolet exposure.

Abstract

The invention relates to a high-quality AlN epitaxial film, a preparation method of the high-quality AlN epitaxial film and the application of the high-quality AlN epitaxial film. According to the invention, the two core links of imaging a sapphire substrate / AlN template and carrying out the high-temperature annealing are combined. The approach of effectively reducing the residual stress is realized through the lateral epitaxy process and the high-temperature annealing process. In this way, an AlN epitaxial film, which is free of cracks, flat in atom level and low in dislocation density, is obtained. As a result, the invention has important significance for realizing the industrial application of AlGaN-based deep ultraviolet high-performance light-emitting and detecting instruments.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an AlN epitaxial film with no cracks, atomic-level flat surface and low dislocation density, its preparation method and application, and belongs to the technical field of preparation of Group III nitride semiconductors. Background technique [0002] AlGaN with high Al composition and its low-dimensional quantum structure optoelectronic functional materials are irreplaceable material systems for the preparation of solid-state deep ultraviolet (DUV) optoelectronic devices. The field has a wide range of applications and is one of the most promising fields and industries for III-nitride semiconductors. Since the Chinese government has signed to participate in the "Minamata Convention", the international production and trade of mercury-containing products will be banned in 2020. Therefore, the development of high-performance AlGaN-based solid-state DUV-LED light sources has become a more urgent task. [0003] Due to the current int...
