In this paper, using a fully-coupled, three-dimensional electro-thermal device simulator, we study the mechanism of efficiency degradation at high current operation in planar GaN-based light emitting diodes (LED). In particular, the improvement of the efficiency degradation using thicker conductive GaN substrates has been demonstrated. First, it is found that local Joule heating inside thin conduc...
The development of SiC and GaN power semiconductor market The current state of SiC technology and market, and the development trend in the next few years. The SiC device market is promising. Sales of Schottky barrier diodes have matured and MOSFET shipments are expected to increase significantly over the next three years. According to Yole Développement analysts, SiC is very mature in terms of dio...
To realize high-performance silicon carbide (SiC) power devices, low-resistance ohmic contacts to p-type SiC must be developed. To reduce the ohmic contact resistance, reduction of the barrier height at metal/SiC interfaces or increase in the doping concentration in the SiC substrates is needed. Since the reduction of barrier height is extremely difficult, the increase in the Al doping concentrati...
Ion beam irradiation has been examined as a method for creating nanoscale semiconductor pillar and cone structures, but has the drawback of inaccurate nanostructure placement. We report on a method for creating and templating nanoscale InAs spikes by focused ion beam (FIB) irradiation of both homoepitaxial InAs films and heteroepitaxial InAs on InP substrates. These 'nanospikes' are created as In ...
Te-doped GaSb single crystals are studied by measuring Hall effect, infrared (IR) transmission and photoluminescence (PL) spectra. It is found that the n-type GaSb with IR transmittance can be obtained as high as 60% by the critical control of the Te-doping concentration and electrical compensation. The concentration of the native acceptor-associated defects is apparently low in the Te-doped GaSb ...
The density and light-scattering intensity of oxygen precipitates in CZ silicon crystals are measured by IR light-scattering tomography. The numerical data clarified through the measurements are discussed in relation to the amount of precipitated oxygen. The results obtained here correspond well with the theoretical analysis that oxygen precipitates cause light to scatter. The information obtained...
This paper proposes a new three-dimensional (3D) photolithography technology for a high-resolution micropatterning process on a fiber substrate. A brief review on the lithography technology of the non-planar surface is also presented. The proposed technology mainly comprises the microfabrication of the 3D exposure module and the spray deposition of thin resist films on the fiber. The 3D exposure m...
Highly tensile-strained sub-monolayer Ge nanostructures on GaSb have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy and studied by ultrahigh-vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy. Four different coverage rates of Ge nanostructures on GaSb are achieved and investigated. It is found the growth of Ge on GaSb follows 2D growth mode. The crystal lattice of the sub-monolayer Ge nanostructures is coherent with that...
InAs segments were grown on top of GaAs islands, initially created by droplet epitaxy on silicon substrate. We systematically explored the growth-parameter space for the deposition of InAs, identifying the conditions for the selective growth on GaAs and for purely axial growth. The axial InAs segments were formed with their sidewalls rotated by 30$^{{}^\circ }$ compared to the GaAs base islands un...
The process to decrease the dislocation density in 3-inch Fe-doped InP wafers is described. The crystal growth process is a conventional liquid encapsulated Czochralsky (LEC) but thermal shields have been added in order to decrease the thermal gradient in the growing crystal. The shape of these shields has been optimized with the help of numerical simulations of heat transfer and thermomechanical ...
