摘要
The polarity of molecular-beam epitaxy grown ZnO films was controlled on nitrided c-sapphire substrate by modifying the interface between the ZnO buffer layer and the nitrided sapphire. The ZnO film grown on nitrided sapphire was proven to be Zn-polar while the O-polar one was obtained by using gallium predeposition on nitrided sapphire, which was confirmed by coaxial impact collision ion scattering spectroscopy and chemical etching effect. The Zn-polar ZnO film showed higher growth rate, slightly better quality, and different surface morphology in comparison to the O-polar one. (C) 2005 American Institute of Physics.
