摘要
Si doped beta-Ga2O3 films were grown on Si substrate by RF magnetron sputtering. The Si concentration varied from 0% to 50%. After the deposition of the amorphous Ga2O3 on the substrate, thermal annealing at 600 degrees C was performed in nitrogen ambient. Polycrystalline beta-Ga2O3 films were grown on Si or quartz substrates; however, other mixed phases of Si, Ga and O were not observed. From the measurement of optical absorption coefficient, it is concluded that the beta-Ga2O3 energy gap increases with increasing Si concentration in the deposited film. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
