(hereinafter abbreviated as TMG) has been mainly used. However, since NH3 has low decomposition efficiency at low temperatures and poor nitrogen supply efficiency, attempts have been made to replace NH3 with hydrazine (N2H4), which has high decomposition efficiency, to lower the temperature for GaN growth (Applied).・Fix Letters 48.1449-1451 (198

Although it is possible to perform group element (V'/III) metamorphosis, that is, to reduce the supply of nitrogen raw material, the effect in terms of lowering the temperature is small as described below. That is, TMG-N
The temperature dependence of the growth rate of GaN in H3, TMG-N2, and H4-based raw materials is shown in FIG. 2 (a) and (b), respectively, and can be considered to be almost the same. This is GaN
This seems to indicate that the decomposition of the organic metal Qa raw material (TMG in this case) is more important than the decomposition of the nitrogen raw material for the growth of Qa.

Prior to growth, the GaAS surface oxide film was removed by annealing at 650°C for 10 minutes while flowing ASH3 from an arsine (ASH3) cylinder 5, and then growth was performed at several temperatures between 300'C and 900'C. I did it. The growth rate was determined from the ratio of the GaN film thickness determined from lipometry and the growth time.
