초록
본 연구에서는 MOCVD 장비를 사용하여 c-plane sapphire 기판 위에 β-Ga2O3 박막을 성장시키는 방법을 조사하였다. 우리는 β-Ga2O3 박막의 결정성을 높이기 위한 최적의 성장 조건을 확인하였으며, 박막의 결정성에 있어 O2와 Ga 전구체 간의 비율이 결정 성장에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. 성장 온도의 범위는 600~1100℃ 였으며 O2/TMGa의 비율이800 ~ 6000일 때 결정성을 분석하였다. 결과적으로 1100℃에서 전구체 간의 몰비가 2400일 때 가장 높은 결정성의 박막을얻을 수 있었다. 박막의 표면을 주사 전자 현미경으로 관찰하였으며, 박막의 XRD ω-스캔 시 FWHM은 회절 피크에서 각각 1.17°, 1.43°로 나타났다. 이렇게 얻어낸 박막의 경우, 가시광선 영역에서 80% 이상의 높은 투과율을 보였으며, 박막의 밴드갭 에너지는 4.78 ~ 4.88 eV였다.
Abstract
In this study, we investigated a method of growing single crystal β-Ga2O3 thin films on a c-plane sapphire substrate using MOCVD. We confirmed the optimal growth conditions to increase the crystallinity of the β-Ga2O3 thin film and confirmed the effect of the ratio between O2 and Ga precursors on crystal growth on the crystallinity of the thin film. The growth temperature range was 600~1100℃, and crystallinity was analyzed when the O2/TMGa ratio was 800~6000. As a result, the highest crystallinity thin film was obtained when the molar ratio between precursors was 2400 at 1100°C. The surface of the thin film was observed with a FE-SEM and XRD ω-scan of the thin film, the FWHM was found to be 1.17° and 1.43° at the and diffraction peaks. The optical band gap energy obtained was 4.78 ~ 4.88 eV, and the films showed a transmittance of over 80% in the near-ultraviolet and visible light regions.
