摘要
The authors report on the growth of Mg doped semipolar (10 (1) over bar(1) over bar) GaN layers on vicinal (100) MgAl2O4 substrates miscut in the < 011 > direction by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. A maximum hole concentration of 2.4x10(18) cm(-3) and a maximum mobility of 8 cm(2) V-1 s(-1), respectively, were achieved following a postgrowth thermal annealing step. Although the hole concentration decreased for Mg concentrations greater than 3.3x10(19) cm(-3), significant hole concentrations, combined with the reduction in internal polarization fields, make semipolar GaN layers suitable for the fabrication of high brightness optoelectronic devices.
