제목 | Introduction of SIO2 mask layer for Selective Area Growth of GaN on Patterned Sapphire Substrate |
초록 | GaN is commercially used in various optoelectronics devices such as light emitting diodes (LEDs), laser diodes (LDs), and UV detectors. But it is still difficult to fabricate high-power GaN-based devices. The main inefficient factor of GaN-based devices is the large difference in the lattice constant and thermal expansion coefficient between the GaN and sapphire substrate. By reducing the threading dislocations between the GaN and sapphire substrate, high-power GaN-based devices can be possible. Recently, epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELOG) on patterned sapphire substrate (PSS) is effective process to reduce the threading dislocations (TDDs) and increase the light extraction efficiency for high power GaN-based LEDs. For ELOG, selective area growth(SAG) is needed and the ion implantation process can be the solution. In this study, we propose a new approach to the ion implantation masking method using SIO2 layer. By using the isotropic growth and anisotropic etch characteristics of SIO2, we can make mask layer on the PSS for ion implantation. This approach can improve the time and cost efficiency by skipping the lithography step in the ion implantation process. In the future, we will proceed verification of mask effectiveness by making full process of ELOG process. |
