technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for growing a superlattice intercalation layer for alleviating / eliminating cracks on the surface of an AlGaN thin film by using molecular beam epitaxy technology, and belongs to the technical field of semiconductor materials. Background technique [0002] Group III nitride semiconductor material system refers to InN, GaN, AlN and their ternary and quaternary alloy materials. Group III nitrides, as the third-generation semiconductor materials, have excellent properties such as large band gap, high electron drift saturation velocity, small dielectric constant, good thermal conductivity, and chemical corrosion resistance (Document 1: Wang Danghui. Group III nitrogen Growth and Characterization of Compound Semiconductor Epitaxial Thin Films [D]. Xidian University, 2012). As a ternary alloy in III-nitride semiconductors, with the change of Al composition, Al x Ga (1-x) The band gap of N can change continuously from 3.4eV...
