Abstract:

Although the research of bulk GaN material has take great progress in recent years, while the high quality of p-type GaN material still is an obstacle to fabricate the HBT and LD devices. In this paper we growth a group of Mg doped AlGaN/GaN superlattices under variant conditions. The Hall, AFM, PL and HR-XRD measurement are taken to find the relationship of sample quality with the superlattice structure, growth and annealing conditions. The results show that the period length of about 9nm and Al content of 30% is the optimal structure; the best annealing temperature under tmosphere is about 540°C to 580°C. At last the p-type AlGaN/GaN superlattice with resistivity of 0.31Ω•cm is fabricated which can be utilize for the contact layers of blue LEDs.
