In this study, monoclinic ss-Ga2O3 and orthorhombic kappa-Ga2O3 thin films were grown on highly thermally conductive 4H-SiC substrates using liquid-injection metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. Both gallium precursors produced the ss phase, but only the latter led to growth of kappa-Ga2O3. The best growth conditions for ss-Ga2O3 were a temperature of 700 degrees C and O-2 flows in the range of 600-800 SCCM. For kappa-Ga2O3, a narrow growth window was observed, with the best results at a temperature of 600 degrees C and an O-2 flow of 800 SCCM. The results suggest the potential of integrating Ga2O3 and SiC for improved thermal management and reliability of future high power Ga2O3-based devices.
We report on the growth of monoclinic ss- and orthorhombic.-phase Ga2O3 thin films using liquid-injection metal-organic chemical vapor deposition on highly thermally conductive 4H-SiC substrates using gallium (III) acetylacetonate or tris(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato) gallium (III). Both gallium precursors produced the ss phase, while only the use of the latter led to growth of kappa-Ga2O3. Regardless of the used precursor, best results for ss-Ga2O3 were achieved at a growth temperature of 700 degrees C and O-2 flows in the range of 600-800 SCCM. A relatively narrow growth window was found for kappa-Ga2O3, and best results were achieved for growth temperatures of 600 degrees C and the O-2 flow of 800 SCCM. While phase-pure ss-Ga2O3 was prepared, kappa-Ga2O3 showed various degrees of parasitic ss phase inclusions. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy confirmed a highly textured structure of ss- and kappa-Ga2O3 layers resulting from the presence of multiple in-plane domain orientations. Thermal conductivities of 53 nm-thick ss-Ga2O3 (2.13 + 0.29/-0.51 W/m K) and 45 nm-thick.-Ga2O3 (1.23 + 0.22/-0.26 W/m K) were determined by transient thermoreflectance and implications for device applications were assessed. Presented results suggest great potential of heterointegration of Ga2O3 and SiC for improved thermal management and reliability of future Ga2O3-based high power devices.
