We used Na-flux method to grow Ga-polar GaN (Ga-GaN) and N-polar GaN (N-GaN) on a double-sided epitaxially polished HVPE-GaN seed. The growth behavior and stress distribution of Ga and N-polar GaN grown by Na-flux method was systematically studied for the first time. Under near-thermodynamic equilibrium growth conditions, the growth rate of the N-polar plane is higher than that of the Ga-polar plane, which is related to the high surface energy of the N-polar plane. The lower overall stress level of Ga-GaN/N-GaN bulk single crystals is confirmed by Raman spectroscopy and low-temperature PL. Three-dimensional atom probe tomography (3D-APT) directly proves that C and O impurities are enriched at the atomic level at the growth interface, resulting in the mismatch of the interface lattice, resulting in compressive stress and reduction of free carriers. Under near-thermodynamic equilibrium growth conditions, the dislocation density of GaN bulk single crystals can be further reduced. Ga-GaN and N-GaN dislocation density values were 4 × 105/cm2 and 8 × 105/cm2, respectively. The mechanism of dislocation reduction is discussed. In addition, we can achieve control of stress and free carriers by adjusting the behavior of impurity incorporation.

近热力学平衡条件下采用 HVPE GaN 种子的 Na 助熔剂生长的块状 GaN 的生长行为和应力分布

我们使用 Na-flux 方法在双面外延抛光的 HVPE-GaN 种子上生长 Ga 极性 GaN (Ga-GaN) 和 N 极性 GaN (N-GaN)。首次系统地研究了Na-flux法生长的Ga和N极性GaN的生长行为和应力分布。在近热力学平衡生长条件下,N极面的生长速率高于Ga极面,这与N极面的高表面能有关。拉曼光谱和低温 PL 证实了 Ga-GaN/N-GaN 块状单晶的整体应力水平较低。三维原子探针断层扫描(3D-APT)直接证明C和O杂质在生长界面原子级富集,导致界面晶格错配,导致压应力和自由载流子减少。在接近热力学平衡生长条件下,GaN块状单晶的位错密度可以进一步降低。Ga-GaN和N-GaN位错密度值为4×10分别为 5 /cm 2和 8 × 10 5 /cm 2。讨论了位错减少的机制。此外,我们可以通过调整杂质掺入行为来实现对应力和自由载流子的控制。
