Gallium oxide (Ga2o3.) is an ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor (4.85-5.3 eV) with emerging applications in power electronics because of its high thermal stability, large breakdown voltage and high dielectric constant. Ga, 03 occurs in the a, B, y and k(€) polymorphs having trigonal, monoclinic, cubic normal spinel and orthorhombic structures, respectively. B- “Ga, 03 is thermodynamically stable and produced in melt-grown substrates. Recently, k- -Ga,0. has accrued increased interest because it has demonstrated stability at temperatures 2 700 °c! and its large spontaneous polarization could be exploited in heterostructures” for high electron mobility transistors. In this study, metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) was used to grow epitaxial Ga,0. films under different growth conditions including temperature, growth rate, and diluent gas flow rate. The growth experiments were conducted in a vertical, low-pressure, cold-wall MOCVD reactor using triethylgallium (TEGa) and 0, precursors and commercially available 0.15 off-axis (toward m-plane) c-plane sapphire. No was used as both the carrier gas for TEGa and the diluent gas. The chamber pressure was held at 20 Torr. The growth rate was controlled by the TEGa flow rate which ranged from 0.29 sccm to 2.1 sccm. The diluent gas flow rate was varied from 4 slm to 8 sim. The O flow rate was maintained at 500 sccm. The temperature was constant for each growth but varied from 470°C to 570 C. Phase composition and microstructural evolution of the films were investigated using different analytical tools including the X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). XRD and SEM revealed that the top layer varied in phase composition between ~100% k-Ga,0, and ~100% B-Ga,0.; the surface microstructure ranged from poorly coalesced to completely coalesced grains as a function of growth temperature, growth rate, or diluent gas flow rate. In general, it was found that the k-phase tends to grow at lower temperatures and higher growth rates (higher TEGa flow rates). The growth of nominally single- phase k-Ga 90 within the top layer was observed in a temperature range between 500° C and 530° C. Below 470° C, only amorphous Ga 90,was obtained; above 570° Cc only the B-phase was deposited. HRTEM and STEM of a film grown at 530° C revealed the initial pseudomorphic growth of 3-4 monolayers of a-Ga,0., a 20-60 nm transition layer that contained both B- and y-Ga,0., and a top ~700 nm thick layer of phase-pure k-Ga,0,.

technical paper

Parametric expressions that describe the complex dielectric function of polycrystalline Mg 2n 1 films as a function of the bandgap E_ have been applied in the metrology of cadmium telluride-based solar cell structures. Valid over the range 3.264 < 3.826 eV, these parametric expressions are applied to facilitate mapping spectroscopic ellipsometry of device structures consisting of Mg Zn, _O deposited on TEC™-15 glass. Mapping spectroscopic ellipsometry is shown to provide maps for the Mg 2n,_,0 effective thickness, or volume per planar substrate area, and Mg 2n,_,0 bandgap within confidence limits of + 1 nm and + 0.003 eV, respectively. As a second application of the parametric expressions, an as-deposited cadmium telluride-based device structure has been analyzed by through-the-glass spectroscopic ellipsometry. Such an analysis is also shown to provide the Mg,2n, 0 effective thickness and bandgap. The outcome of the through-the-glass spectroscopic ellipsometry analysis for this device structure enables simulations of the external quantum efficiency spectra of the resulting solar cell assuming different recombination losses within the individual layers of the structure. A comparison of these simulations with corresponding experimental spectra reveals high current collection from the front of the device with the almost complete collection from the cadmium sulfide components of the Mg,2n _O/cadmium sulfide and cadmium sulfide/cadmium telluride interface layers of the structure.

Transition metal multinary chalcogenides are a unique class of material for photovoltaic (PV) and quantum dot light emitting (QLED) applications. They offer a higher level of flexibility from a materials perspective to achieve tunable band gaps through structural and compositional control. We aim to realize new and more sustainable direct band-gap semiconductor materials from multinary compositions of earth-abundant elements. To this end, detailed ab initio calculations are first performed for the parent binary Cu-chalcogenide composition. A series of new p-doped, n-doped, and degenerate semiconductors based on multinary Cu-chalcogenide nanocrystals are predicted using the theoretical investigations of the band gap and density of states. We experimentally realized the new multinary Cu-chalcogenide compositions via novel solution chemistry approaches. A detailed material characterization based on x-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy is reported for the new Cuchalcogenide nanocrystals and thin films. These new results will provide key theoretical and experimental insights for achieving more sustainable absorber layer materials for inorganic solar cells.

Designing New Sustainable Semiconductor Materials with Cu-Chalcogenide Nanocrystals

A new class of magnetic metamaterials can be produced by placing magnetic molecules between two ferromagnetic electrodes. Magnetic molecules can be designed to create strong exchange coupling between two ferromagnetic electrodes. Magnetic molecule-induced strong exchange coupling that can be harnessed as the means to initiate an automatic spin filtering process to shuffle the spin density of states in the two ferromagnetic electrodes. Our recent preliminary experimental studies showed that iron and nickel atom-based organometallic molecules (FeNiOMC) produced a strong spin filtering effect between NiFe and Co/NiFe ferromagnetic electrodes (Tyagi, P.; Riso, C., Molecular spintronics devices exhibiting properties of a solar cell. Nanotechnology 2019, 30 (49), 49540). Fe-Ni-OMC dramatically modified the magnetic properties of ferromagnetic electrodes present in the magnetic tunnel junction testbed at room temperature. This paper talks about the resulting Fe-NiOMC and magnetic tunnel junctionbased magnetic metamaterial. This metamaterial showed an intriguing solar cell effect. Further experimental studies are conducted to design several other forms of novel magnetic metamaterials by combining a wide range of Singlemolecule magnetic (SMM) and porphyrin-like magnetic molecules with various permutations of magnetic electrodes. To produce a magnetic tunnel junction testbed that is to be used to test various molecules, we made extensive experimental optimization efforts at each stage of device fabrication to address device fabrication challenges associated with molecule-ferromagnet interactions. In this study, we have systematically optimized several factors using multiple Taguchi Design of Experiment approaches to improve the fabrication of the bottom electrode of the magnetic metamaterial. We systematically varied photolithography parameters and plasma treatment process to yield a bottom ferromagnetic electrode with

Solar Cell Effect with Magnetic Metamaterials Produced by Combining Magnetic Tunnel Junction and Magnetic Molecules

Reliable and controllable growth of two dimensional hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is essential for its wide range of applications. Here, we carried out molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth of monolayer h-BN on nickel (Ni) substrates by using ammonia (NH) and boron oxide (B04) as the sources. It was found that compared with normal growth of h-BN by introducing the NH, and B,0., source at the same time, the pretreatment with B,0, greatly inhibited the following epitaxial growth of h-BN. With the increase of B,0, pretreatment time and then followed by 15 min h-BN growth, the coverage of h-BN exhibited an exponential decay relationship with the treatment time. The samples were analyzed using depth-profiling X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED). The oxygen/Ni peak intensity ratios derived from the XPS showed that the oxygen concentration increased with the increase of B,0, pretreatment time from the surface while decreased gradually with the increase of XPS sputtering depth. Meanwhile, boron incorporation was negligible regardless of treatment time. The epitaxial relationship was studied by using h-BN coverage-dependent RHEED analysis, obtained on samples including Ni substrate after annealing only, Ni substrate with BAO pretreatment, h-BN samples with the B,03 pretreatment and subsequent 50%, and 100% film coverage. Only two sets of patterns were observed and separated by 30, confirming that there is no in-plane rotation between the h-BN and Ni (111) surface. The oxygen incorporated into the Ni substrate not only suppressed h-BN nucleation by passivating the Ni surface active sites, but also decreased the growth rate of single crystal h-BN domains, shifting from larger sizes to smaller shapes. Detailed structural, optical and electrical characterizations of these monolayer h-BN films will also be presented. Our work reveals the influence of oxygen on the catalytic effect of Ni in the MBE growth of monolayer h-BN and provides an efficient way to control the morphology and quality of the 2D h-BN films.

Molecular Beam Epitaxy Growth of Monolayer Hexagonal Boron Nitride on Nickel Substrates Incorporated with Oxygen Atoms

Exchange bias, a magnetic phenomenon emerging at the interface between a ferromagnet (FM) and an antiferromagnet (AFM), originates from the pinning of spins in the FM layer by the adjacent AFM layer, effectively stabilizing the FM against the environmental stray magnetic fields. This phenomenon has been implemented in a wide range of technological applications including magnetic memories, magnetic read heads, and sensors, and plays the foundational role for advanced spintronics. Here, we report an approach to establishing strong exchange bias in the 2D magnet/oxide heterostructure by a single-step process — atomic layer deposition (ALD). The exchange bias we created is controllable in the range of ~300 to 1500 Oe by replacing different oxides in the heterostructure. Hence, this systematic work elucidates the essential role of ALD-enabled oxidization of layered magnets in the formation of exchange bias and establishes ALD of oxides as a facile, controllable, and generally effective approach to creating giant exchange bias in vaW magnets, representing an integral advance towards practical vdW spintronic devices.

Facile Integration of Giant Exchange Bias in 2D Magnet/Oxide Heterostructures

Layered chalcogenides are promising materials for future (opto-)electronic applications. ' 2 The semiconductor tin selenide (SnSe) is a member of the monochalcogenide (MX) family, which feature functionality including domain-switching behavior, ferroelasticity, thermo-, piezo- and ferroelectricity.” ~ Orthorhombic a-SnSe has strong in-plane anisotropy with implications for thermal, electronic, and optical properties. It has been studied for next-generation microelectronics, photonics and energy-conversion technologies, and has been the focus of a theoretical proposal for ultra-fast, non-thermal optical domain switching. ’~ Control of rotational domains (i.e., twins) during SnSe thin-film synthesis is key to enable high-quality, single-crystalline SnSe for the proposed applications. This work focusses on MBE of SnSe. We demonstrate (1) a fast and easy method to probe rotational domains in SnSe thin films and (2) a solution to overcome the formation of rotational domains by focusing on symmetry and lattice-matched vdW epitaxy of SnSe on a-plane sapphire surfaces. When orthorhombic SnSe (in-plane lattice parameters; a = 4.15A and b = 4.44A) is epitaxially grown on cubic MgO (a = 4.21A), various rotational domains are formed as a result of the various symmetry structure of both materials. ~ The 2-fold rotational symmetry of SnSe combined with the 4-fold symmetry of MgO results in the formation 90° SnSe twins, and a high density of grain boundaries upon closure of the epitaxial film. Characterizing rotational domains in ultra-thin films of 2D materials is generally challenging (in-plane HR-XRD, ‘large-area’ cs-TEM imaging, etc.). We show that, thanks to the optical anisotropy of a-SnSe in the visible (An = 0.88) | 5 supported by an optical model based on the reflectivity of linearly-polarized light, 90° SnSe twins are easily distinguishable using polarized optical microscopy. When studied under cross-polarization at 45° with respect to the SnSe optical axis, slightly increasing or decreasing the angle of the polarizer with respect to the analyzer enables the color splitting of 0°-oriented and 90°- oriented domains into blue and yellow, respectively, when illuminated with white light. We first demonstrate this method on thicker SnSe epitaxial crystallites (~5Onm), using polarized Raman spectroscopy for validation, and we then apply it to thinner (~5nm) epitaxial SnSe films. The distribution of blue and yellow pixels in the optical image enables the quantification of rotational domains and confirms the presence of a high density of 90° twins on MgO. To overcome the formation of 90° twins, we grow epitaxially on a-plane sapphire [a-AI,0..(1 1-20)] substrates. Similarly as a-SnSe, the surface unit of OAI,0.3(1 1-20) can be constructed using dissimilar in-plane lattice parameters; a = 8.24A andb=12.99A. This favors single-oriented domain epitaxy of (2 x 3) units of SnSe on a-Al., O,,(11-20), explained by the symmetry match and small lattice mismatch in both in-plane directions, and confirmed 3 experimentally by our polarized reflectivity method. The developed optical method and epitaxy on a-plane sapphire represent a very useful combination of film metrology and growth methodology to realize high-quality, single-crystalline epitaxial SnSe thin films free of rotational twin domains. We will also highlight our epitaxial growth techniques, especially a comparison between solid-source and plasma-assisted methods. Singh A et al ACS Photonics 2020, 7 (12) Liu Y et al Nat. Rev.

Fast and Easy Optical Imaging and Epitaxial Growth Control of Rotational Domains in SnSe Thin Films

Freestanding graphene nano- and microstructures have been shown to exhibit controllable electron emission when carrying a current and immersed in an external accelerating electric field. Through the mechanism of Phonon-Assisted Electron Emission, these structures demonstrate electron emission at electric field intensities and lattice temperatures below what would be expected for carbon to demonstrate field emission or thermionic emission, respectively. Emission currents have been measured primarily out of the plane of the device surface, allowing some directional control before the accelerating field is even considered. Thus far, such demonstrations have tended to involve structural dimensions on the order of only a handful of um, and have commonly been fabricated from CVD transferred graphene, flakes, or carbon nanotubes in various vertical and horizontal arrangements. Applied fields for such devices typically approach hundreds of kV/cm, and emission currents rarely leave the nA range. Herein are presented graphene structures with dimensions up to cm, in fields not exceeding 1 kV/cm, and producing emission currents of nearly 10 UA. Quasi-freestanding epitaxial graphene, synthesized from a silicon carbide substrate, offers several advantages compared to transferred graphene or unzipped nanotubes, including greater structural integrity, lower defect density, ease of handling, and ready compatibility with conventional simple photolithographic fabrication techniques. The devices presented here were fabricated with a low-cost, wafer scalable, single-photomask process that does not require material transfer to a secondary substrate and is easily tailored to create variations in design parameters, which allowed multiple batches of devices to be rapidly manufactured with precise variations for the purpose of performance testing. The devices exhibit recognizable patterns of emission current performance relative to device and substrate temperature, including an identifiable turn-on point and emission current maintenance. Device behavior relative to substrate heating identifies the electron-phonon interactions that enable function and current emission, both when device temperature is supplied internally and externally. Emission currents are also observed to follow a performance pattern derived from purposeful device morphology, even exhibiting emission currents in accelerating fields as low as 50 V/cm. Graphene electron emission devices present an opportunity for electron emission in a planar 2D heterostructure environment, beyond even the dimensional capabilities of field emission devices, and below the high operating temperatures of thermionic sources. Through refinements in the design and packaging, such devices, which are arbitrarily scalable between the micron and wafer level, could provide the electron sources for novel applications in Xray generation or electron microscopy.

Electron Emission Sources from Quasi-Freestanding Epitaxial Graphene Planar Devices

High-brightness photoemitters can be employed as electron sources in ultrafast electron diffraction and X-ray free-electron lasers, energy recovery linacs, electron microscopes, electron beam lithography, space propulsion and high-power microwave devices. To yield high quantum efficiencies, high brightness beams require rapid response times and low mean transverse energies (MTE). Recently, negative electron affinity (NEA) photocathodes, consisting of a GaAs wafer and a Cs/O surface layer, have been reported to exhibit both reasonably low MTE and good external quantum efficiencies (EQE) of ~10 ~-10 “. However, NEA cathodes are rarely used due to their significantly complex fabrication process which includes high temperature processing steps, entirely in-situ activation as well as ultra-high vacuum storage and operating pressures. Their stability is not also up to the mark. In this investigation, we have fabricated a Hot Electron Laser Assisted Cathode (HELAC) using electronically tunable negative electron affinity silicon surface. Briefly, the device consists of a three-layer stack of (i) a semiconductor, which absorbs incident photons, (ii) a monolayer of graphene, which acts as the gate, and (iii) an insulator, which allows a voltage drop between the semiconductor and graphene. In this device, an electric field is generated by applying a bias voltage between the semiconductor and graphene which mimics the surface dipole field in an NEA photocathode. Electrons injected into the graphene do not require transport to the emitting surface due to the monolayer thickness of the graphene. This device is air stable with a simple ex-situ fabrication flow while preserving the advantages of NEA photocathodes. We have demonstrated an initial proof-of-concept HELAC device with a psilicon substrate, silicon oxide insulator and monolayer graphene stack and evaluated its performance using a 405 nm CW laser at ~40 mW of incident power. Despite having a non-optimized structure, this device has exhibited a current of ~70 yA (~1.1 mA/cm?), resulting in an EQE of ~0.5%. Semiconductor modeling indicated that EQEs of ~10% and response times in the 1-10 ps range are plausible for this device. Additionally, it is expected that low-MTE is achievable by optimizing the quality of the insulator, the barrier height, and the tunneling mechanism. This is analogous to Cs-based NEA devices, where low MTEs are attainable despite a large electric field which is developed due to the surface dipole.

Hot Electron Laser Assisted Cathode using Electronically Tunable Negative Electron Affinity Silicon Surface

Here, we demonstrate chemical potential control as an effective tool to suppress compensation in Mgdoped nitrogen-polar (N-polar) gallium nitride (GaN) films grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). An increase in nitrogen chemical potential obtained by increasing the process supersaturation is shown to systematically reduce the incorporation of compensating oxygen and nitrogen-vacancy point defects. This is confirmed by photoluminescence and temperature-dependent Hall effect measurements. The suppressed compensation led to an order of magnitude improvement in p-type conductivity with the room-temperature hole concentration, mobility, and resistivity measuring 6x10" cm ™~, 9 cm*/Vs, and 1.1 ohm-cm, respectively. These results are paramount in the pathway towards N-polar GaN power and optoelectronic devices. GaN with N-polar orientation has attracted growing interest toward the development of high-performance electronic and optoelectronic devices such as high-frequency high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs), solar cells, longwavelength LEDs, and ultraviolet photocathodes. A reversal of polarization field direction in N-polar GaN from its metal-polar counterpart allows for device designs that lead to improved performance, for example, enhanced carrier extraction efficiency in InGaN solar cells, enhanced hole injection, suppressed electron overflow and decreased droop in LEDs, improved confinement in the two-dimensional electron gas channel in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs, and improved transistor performance in polarization-engineered tunnel field-effect transistors (T-FETs). These novel device applications based on N-polar GaN can be further improved and optimized with the realization of low-resistivity p-type material. For example, achieving a steep device turn-on in T-FETs necessitates low resistance p-GaN layers, whereas high hole and electron concentrations are required near the p-n junction for optimal band alignment in these devices. Achieving efficient p-type doping in GaN is understood to be challenging due to an interplay between large Mg acceptor ionization energy (150-220 meV), incorporation of compensating point defects and point defect complexes during epitaxial growth, and low mobility values of holes as compared to electrons. Moreover, N-polar GaN offers added material challenges that need to be addressed to achieve high p-type conductivity. For instance, if not controlled, N-polar GaN grows with a rough surface morphology characterized by hexagonal hillocks, and high unintentional defect incorporation, notably oxygen, which incorporates at concentrations >10 ~ cm™~. Oxygen on the nitrogen site (O7) acts as a shallow donor in N-polar GaN with an activation energy of ~29 meV which leads to significant difficulties in achieving p-type conductivity. In addition, the incorporation of nitrogen-vacancy (V)))-related compensating defects is favored in p-type GaN due to low formation energy. While much work has focused on pdoping of Ga-polar GaN, to date, comprehensive electrical characterization and compensation control in p-type Npolar GaN is lacking in the literature. The chemical potential control (CPC) is a predictive approach wherein the dependence of the defect formation energy is theoretically estimated as a function of MOCVD growth parameters. These growth parameters are, for example, the V/IIl ratio, diluent gas, temperature, pressure, and input partial pressures of gas species. Instead of these individual MOCVD “knobs”, supersaturation is employed as a representative thermodynamic parameter. Following the CPC framework, increasing the supersaturation can be shown to increase the formation energy of both compensating defects, On and Vn: In this work, we demonstrate the utility of the CPC scheme in reducing the compensation in ptype N-polar GaN to realize state-of-the-art hole concentration and resistivity.

Chemical Potential Control in p-Type N-Polar GaN

The heterogeneous integration of IIl-nitride materials with other semiconductor systems for electronic devices is attractive because it combines the excellent electrical properties of the Ill-nitrides with other device platforms. Pursuing integration through metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) is desirable because of the scalability of the technique, but the high temperatures required for the MOCVD growth of Ill-nitrides (>1000 °C) are incompatible with heteroepitaxy on some semiconductor systems and fabricated wafers. Thus it is critical to develop IIl-nitride films with good electrical properties at growth temperatures compatible with temperature sensitive substrates. High crystal quality GaN films with reduced impurity levels have been achieved at temperatures as low as 500 °C using pulsed growth methods such as atomic layer epitaxy and flow modulation epitaxy (FME). However, the electrical behavior of doped LT Ill-nitride films is relatively unexplored. In this work, thin Si-doped LT GaN films were grown at 550 °C by atmospheric pressure MOCVD using an FME scheme. Triethylgallium and ammonia were used as the GaN precursors and disilane as the Si dopant. Because of the very low growth rate (0.006 A/s), 1200 FME cycles resulted in approximately 16 nm-thick films. Two different FME Si-doping schemes were investigated. The first series varied the fraction of cycles in which disilane was injected into the growing film. Samples were grown with disilane injected every 20, 10, 5, 3, 2, and 1 cycle. The second series varied the disilane flow while using the standard frequency of disilane injection (1 in 5 cycles). Samples were characterized by Hall measurements and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). For the disilane injection series films, electron concentrations up to 6.97 x 4018 om”? were achieved, with electron mobilities from 34 to 119 cm vi sl The peak electron concentration was achieved for the sample with disilane injected in 1/3 of FME cycles during growth. The charge dropped off for samples with higher frequencies of disilane injection, likely because of degraded morphology. The Si concentrations measured by SIMS were somewhat higher than the electron concentrations measured by Hall. The background atmospheric impurity concentrations averaged 2.1 xX 1017 em’? for oxygen and 3.9 x 10 0 cm ~ for carbon, with no apparent dependence on Si concentration. The disilane flow series resulted in films with electron concentrations from 5.98 x 10 ~ cm ~ to 5.91 x 10'9 om”? and electron mobilities from 52 to 115 cm? vi s |, with the highest charge achieved with the highest disilane flow. The sheet resistance of this sample was 1068 Q/#, which is comparable to low resistance GaN films grown at high temperature, which range from 100-500 Q/#. These results demonstrate the potential for LT Ill-nitrides in electronics applications. This work supported in part by Intel Corporation and the Solid State Lighting and Energy Electronics Center.
