【Epitaxy Papers】High Quality Heavy Sn Doping β-Ga₂O₃ Film with High Mobility Grown by Time Division Transport Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition

      Researchers from the Xidian University have published a dissertation titled "High Quality heavy Sn doping β-Ga₂O₃ film with high Mobility grown by time division transport Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition" in Journal of Alloys and Compounds.

Abstract

      High-quality heavily Sn doped homoepitaxial β-Ga₂O₃ films with high mobility were deposited on (100) Ga₂O₃ substrates using long-distance time division transport method by Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition. The structure, composition, Raman, and electrical properties of the films with different Sn source flow rates were investigated in detail. The room temperature carrier mobility of 139.89 cm²/(V·s) is attained at a RT donor concentration of 2.78×10¹⁹ cm^-3, with a peak mobility of 444.9 cm²/(V·s) at 114 K. This RT mobility is currently the highest at the same doping concentration level. Furthermore, combined with the analysis of the first-principles calculation results, it is revealed that time dependent transport technology is beneficial to modulating the substitution mode of Sn replacing Ga_II more often. The conclusions of this study are significant to broaden the potential application of ultrawide bandgap gallium oxide in high-power microwave and power electronics devices.
