説明

<jats:p>GaN PiN rectifiers with high structural quality were grown on free-standing GaN substrates using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The lattice mismatch between the substrate and the epitaxial GaN was found to be ∼1×10−4. The full width at half maximum of the (0002) rocking curve was 79arcs compared to 230arcs for similar materials grown on sapphire. The incorporation of C, H, and O impurities in the homoepitaxial drift layer was reduced by a factor of 2–4. The rectifiers on GaN demonstrated rectification to −265V, which represents a 1.6× improvement over the rectifiers on sapphire and corresponds to a critical electric field ∼2.7MV∕cm. The homoepitaxial rectifiers also showed two orders of magnitude lower reverse leakage and a smaller negative temperature coefficient for breakdown voltage, consistent with a reduced defect density in the drift region.</jats:p>
