Investigation of Structural Characteristics of III-V Semiconductor Nanowires Grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy Zhi Zhang Master of Chemical Engineering
Investigation of Structural Characteristics of III-V Semiconductor Nanowires Grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy Zhi Zhang Master of Chemical Engineering A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2015 School of Mechanical and Mining Engineering Abstract One-dimensional nanowires made of III-V semiconductors have attracted significant research interest in the recent decades due to their distinct physical and chemical properties that can potentially lead to a wide range of applications in nanoelectronics and optoelectronics. As a key class of III-V semiconductor nanowires, InAs nanowires have attracted special attention due to their narrow bandgap, relatively high electron mobility, and small electron effective mass, which made them a promising candidate for the applications in future optical and high- frequency electronic devices. One of the challenges in realizing these unique III-V nanowire properties in nanowire-based devices is to integrate nanowires on the nano-devices or chips with well-organized arrangement. To solve this issue, the epitaxial nanowire growth provides the uniqueness that well aligned nanowires can be grown on the chosen substrates, and by selecting substrates with particular orientations, specifically orientated nanowires can be grown. Au-assisted nanowire growth is one of the most common methods to grow epitaxial III-V nanowires via the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mechanism or vapor-solid-solid (VSS) mechanism. For III-V nanowires, one of the coherent problems is that the stacking faults and/or twin defects can easily be introduced in both wurtzite or zinc-blende structured nanowires due to the small energy differences between wurtzite and zinc-blende stacking sequences of their dense planes. -

Molecular Beam Epitaxy
Surface Science 500 (2002) 189–217 www.elsevier.com/locate/susc Molecular beam epitaxy John R. Arthur Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Oregon State University, Corvallis, OR 97331, USA Received 6 September 2000; accepted for publication 16 March 2001 Abstract Molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) is a process for growing thin, epitaxial films of a wide variety of materials, ranging from oxides to semiconductors to metals. It was first applied to the growth of compound semiconductors. That is still the most common usage, in large part because of the high technological value of such materials to the electronics industry. In this process beams of atoms or molecules in an ultra-high vacuum environment are incident upon a heated crystal that has previously been processed to produce a nearly atomically clean surface. The arriving constituent atoms form a crystalline layer in registry with the substrate, i.e., an epitaxial film. These films are remarkable because the composition can be rapidly changed, producing crystalline interfaces that are almost atomically abrupt. Thus, it has been possible to produce a large range of unique structures, including quantum well devices, superlattices, lasers, etc., all of which benefit from the precise control of composition during growth. Because of the cleanliness of the growth environment and because of the precise control over composition, MBE structures closely approximate the idealized models used in solid state theory. This discussion is intended as an introduction to the concept and the experimental procedures used in MBE growth. The refinement of experimental procedures has been the key to the successful fabrication of electronically significant devices, which in turn has generated the widespread interest in the MBE as a research tool. -

IV (May – June 2017), PP 22-24 www.iosrjournals.org The Main Preparation Methods of Gan Films Fu Qiang1 1(School of Electronics and Information Engineering, Tianjin Polytechnic University, China) Abstract: Wide band-gap semiconductor materials have many properties such as the big forbidden band width, high thermal conductivity, high dielectric strength, low dielectric constant, high electron velocity (saturated speed). In numerous wide band-gap materials, GaN and group Ⅲ nitrides are noticeable. This is the third generation of new type of semiconductor material appeared after the second generation of semiconductor materials such as GaAs, InP, which can be widely used in high temperature electronics, power electronics, and high frequency, resistance to radiation and other fields. HVPE (hydride vapor phase epitaxy) is a kind of atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition technique. Its growth speed is fast, which can reach more than 100 um/h. Its manufacturing cost is low. The equipment process is relatively simple. It is the most effective way to grow thick film GaN and GaN crystal blocks. In this dissertation, we research the factors influencing on growing 4 inch GaN on sapphire substrate by vertical HVPE. We firstly design the reactor cavity structure of HVPE by using computer, then simulate and optimize the distance between substrate and the gas inlet. At last, the gravity and gas parameters influencing on the deposition of GaN is also discussed. Keywords: HVPE; GaN; simulation; gravity; gas parameters I.

The unique low earth orbit space environment is expected to yield 10~ 14 torr or better pressures, semi-infinite pumping speeds and large ultra vacuum volume (~100 m3) without walls. These space ultra vacuum properties promise major improvement in the quality, unique nature, and the throughput of epitaxially grown materials especially in the area of semiconductors for microelectronics use. -
Molecular Beam Epitaxy
Molecular Beam Epitaxy • In MBE, ‘molecular beams’ of semiconductor material are deposited onto a heated crystalline substrate to form thin epitaxial layers. • Deposited films are crystalline • Special thermal evaporation or sputter tool required • Growth rates = a few Å/s • Substrate temperatures can exceed 900oC • Surface measured using RHEED gun • Mass Spectrometer determines purity deposited material • Alternate types of MBE – metal-organic group III precursors (MOMBE), – gaseous group V hydride or organic precursors (gas-source MBE) – combination (chemical beam epitaxy or CBE). http://projects.ece.utexas.edu/ece/mrc/groups/str eet_mbe/mbechapter.html#EpionInP Effusion Cells • Thermal evaporation sources • Also called Knudsen or K-cells • Most important part of the MBE system • Ultra high purity material • Ultra high vacuum • Insulated walls to prevent heating of Crucible other sources • Highly accurate thermal probes • PID control on temperature and shutter • Shutter speed = fractions of a second UHV seal Shutter Not shown Substrate holder • To improve film uniformity substrates are spun azimuthally during the process. • GaN is typically grown at temperatures exceeding 700°C • For GaAs growth systems can reach temperatures of approximately 900°C • Molybdenum (Mo) substrate holders are used • Zn is used as a wetting material between the holder and the substrate. – Zinc’s partial pressure is low enough not to contaminate films during long depositions – Wets Mo and MgO sufficiently at T>700oC to be act as a seal between holder and substrate -
