Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣海洋大學 === 電機工程學系 === 98 === We study the optical and electric properties of InxAlyGa1-x-yN epilayers with x ranging from 0.014~0.028 and y ranging from 0.079~0.140 by Photoluminescence (PL) with temperature dependence and optical quenching (OQ) photoconductivity (PC) measurement. The InxAlyGa1-x-yN samples with various In and Al contents were deposited on a sapphire substrate with a GaN buffer layer by low pressure metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The temperature dependent PL of the InxAlyGa1-x-yN epilayers shows a classical “S-shape” behavior. This behavior is attributed to exciton localization due to compositional fluctuations in the InxAlyGa1-x-yN layers. Two broad quenched bands observed at 1.127 eV~1.458 eV and 1.653 eV~1.907 eV are attributed to the existence of the trap level in the InxAlyGa1-x-yN epilayer. The origin of the defects responsible for the optical quenching can be attributed to nitrogen antisite or gallium vacancy.
