Optical properties of Ga-doped AlN nanowires

Remy Vermeersch et al.

Summary: We have demonstrated that intentional Ga doping of AlN nanowires in the range of 0.01%-0.5% results in the formation of nanometric carrier localization centers. This leads to the observation of sharp cathodoluminescence lines in the wavelength range of 220-300 nm for single nanowires. Additionally, an ensemble of Ga-doped AlN nanowires exhibits wide-band cathodoluminescence emission, paving the way for efficient UV-C light emitting diodes covering a wide part of the DNA absorption band.

Density control of GaN nanowires at the wafer scale using self-assembled SiN x patches on sputtered TiN(111)

T. Auzelle et al.

Summary: The self-assembly of GaN nanowires on TiN(111) substrates is examined using SiN x patches as nucleation seeds. The density of the nanowires can be tuned by three orders of magnitude by varying the amount of pre-deposited SiN x , bridging the density regimes achievable by direct self-assembly with MBE or MOVPE. This approach has potential applications in tuning the density of III-V semiconductors grown on inert surfaces like 2D materials.

Jose P. S. Cardoso et al.

Summary: Europium-implanted AlN nanowire pn junctions were annealed at 1000 degrees C and showed increased Eu3+ luminescence intensity with higher fluence, while the contribution from defect-related emissions decreased. This study demonstrates the potential of using Eu-implanted AlN NWs for developing red LEDs with improved luminescence properties.

Ran Gao et al.

Summary: This paper focuses on the highly crystalline and epitaxial titanium nitride thin films deposited on sapphire substrates using magnetron sputtering at an intermediate temperature. Systematic and comprehensive material characterizations were performed to understand the structural, chemical, and transport properties. The microwave losses of titanium nitride were studied using patterned microwave resonators, showing its potential for low-loss superconducting quantum circuits.

Molecular beam homoepitaxy of N-polar AlN on bulk AlN substrates

Jashan Singhal et al.

Summary: In this study, N-polar AlN epilayers were successfully grown on the N-face of AlN substrates using plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. In situ thermal deoxidation and Al-assisted thermal desorption were used to remove native surface oxides and impurities, resulting in successful homoepitaxy. The grown AlN layer exhibited smooth surface morphologies and low structural defect densities, with the presence of interesting inversion domains.

Shallow donor and DX state in Si doped AlN nanowires grown by molecular beam epitaxy

Remy Vermeersch et al.

Summary: Investigation of Si doping in AlN nanowires grown by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy was conducted for the purpose of fabricating efficient AlN based deep ultra-violet light-emitting-diodes. Si donors were found to exist in both shallow and deep DX states, with a favorable formation of shallow Si donors discussed in terms of Fermi level pinning on nanowires sidewalls.

Role of oxygen diffusion in the dislocation reduction of epitaxial AlN on sapphire during high-temperature annealing

Leonardo Cancellara et al.

Summary: This study investigates the recovery process of epitaxial AlN films on sapphire at high temperatures. It reveals a temperature-dependent increase in oxygen content and proposes a lateral outdiffusion hypothesis to explain the observed oxygen concentration plateaus. Additionally, it concludes that the di-oxygen/aluminum vacancy complex (V-Al-2O(N)) plays a key role in controlling the annealing process.

Enhanced Radiative Efficiency in GaN Nanowires Grown on Sputtered TiNx: Effects of Surface Electric Fields

Thomas Auzelle et al.

Summary: By growing GaN nanowires on thermally stable TiNx/Al2O3 substrates at high temperatures, the formation of nonradiative recombination can be suppressed. Contrary to previous beliefs, the nonradiative process in GaN nanowires is not controlled by defect density, but rather by the nanowire diameter.

Summary: This study demonstrates semi-quantitative PFM can be achieved on low piezocoefficient III-nitrides in high-aspect-ratio nanostructures, and improved electric field distribution in nanowires minimizes measurement artifacts. Contrary to previous reports, giant piezoelectricity was not observed in III-N nanowires with diameters ranging from 30-80 nm.
