Embodiment
Below, use the description of drawings embodiments of the present invention.
Execution mode 1
Below, embodiments of the present invention are described.1 pair of following situation of present embodiment describes: for respect to gallium oxide (Ga 2O 3) monocrystalline acquisition ohmic contact, perhaps in order to improve characteristic as the Au/Ti vapor-deposited film of the electrode material that can reduce contact resistance, heat treatment and pre-treatment condition by the monocrystalline before the investigation evaporation, use oxygen atmosphere, 1100 ℃, the heat treatment more than 3 hours and plasma irradiating in the lump, improve the IV characteristic of Au/Ti vapor-deposited film.
In order to select and Ga 2O 3Monocrystalline constitutes the material of ohmic contact, needs work function to equate with gallium oxide or below gallium oxide.The work function of gallium oxide is about 6eV, and Au, Ti are 4eV, and is littler than the gallium oxide.At first, the inventor makes Ga in order to carry out crystal growth and other application 2O 3The surface is with atomic level (level: rank) planarization.This passes through the Ga after the crystal formation 2O 3Anneal and obtain confirming.
Just with respect to Ga 2O 3The ohmic contact of monocrystalline, Au/Ti is satisfactory.Specifically, with Ga 2O 3Monocrystalline is a substrate, and behind the Ti of evaporation 30~60nm, secondly the Au of evaporation 150~250nm has made electrode at first thereon.Measure I-E characteristic, the result can access ohm property, and this is well-known.Annealing (annealing) condition be in oxygen atmosphere at 1100 ℃, carry out more than 3 hours.Can realize being formed with the flat surfaces of the atomic level of ladder (step), step (terrace) structure by this processing.
Here, the present inventor finds, in order further to reduce Ga 2O 3The resistance value on surface obtains more good Ohmic contact, by to the Ga after the crystal formation 2O 3Anneal, further plasma irradiating is carried out on the surface and generate defective, the result is to utilize the carrier electrons that produces can improve conductivity.
Annealing conditions is, in oxygen atmosphere, 1100 ℃ carry out more than 3 hours.By this processing, can form ladder, ledge structure from the teeth outwards, realize excellent contact.
The Ga of (600 ℃~1100 ℃) when Fig. 1 represents to change heat treatment temperature 2O 3The AFM on monocrystal substrate surface (Atomic Force Microscopy: atomic force microscope) as.Atmosphere is oxygen, and the time is 3 hours.Before this, as the pre-treatment of substrate, after carrying out organic cleaning, carry out 15 minutes processing and use H with HF5% 2SO 4: H 2O 2: H 2O=4: mixed liquor carried out 5 minutes processing in 1: 1.
From the result of Fig. 1 as seen, when temperature is 1100 ℃, observe clearly ladder, ledge structure.Think,, when the electrode evaporation material, can realize excellent contact by carrying out such heat treatment.Here, the present inventor finds to pass through at Ga 2O 3Irradiation plasma and generate defective on the surface so utilize the energy level of the defective that is produced, reduces contact resistance, can access more the characteristic as ohmic contact.
Then, to the Ga after the heat treatment 2O 3Monocrystal substrate carries out plasma irradiating as the processing before the evaporation.The purpose of plasma irradiating is to make forcibly to generate defective, improves electrical conductivity.
Specifically, utilize residual gas to produce the plasma of glow discharge to the specimen surface irradiation.Irradiation time is 30 minutes, and ionic current is hundreds of μ A.
Like this, to the Ga after the crystal formation 2O 3After heat-treating, plasma irradiating is carried out on the surface, afterwards, install electrode.As electrode material, preferably behind the Ti of about 50nm, evaporation 150~250nm is the Au of about 200nm preferably at evaporation 30~60nm.
Below, utilize embodiment that its result is described.
(embodiment)
(Floating Zone: the floating region) grow by method with FZ for gallium oxide single crystal (do not have and add).As atmosphere gas, under oxygen concentration 10% (flow-rate ratio), speed of growth 7.5mm/hr, 1 atmospheric condition, grow.Cut out its (100) face, mirror ultrafinish is carried out on the surface, be processed into the wafer-like of the about 0.4mm of thickness with cmp.
As the pre-treatment of substrate, after organic cleaning, carry out 15 minutes processing and use H with HF5% 2SO 4: H 2O 2: H 2O=4: mixed liquor carried out 5 minutes processing in 1: 1.
To this sample, in the oxygen atmosphere 1100 ℃ of heat treatments of carrying out 3 hours and 6 hours.
Then, as the pre-treatment of electrode evaporation material, carry out plasma irradiating.As a comparative example, do nothing processing when only carrying out grinding 10 μ m with diamond chip.By carrying out plasma irradiating at sample from the plasma irradiating that residual gas (oxygen nitrogen) produces.
After these were handled, behind the Ti of evaporation 50nm, the Au of evaporation 100nm was made into electrode.At this moment electrode size is that diameter is the circle about 1mm.And several to (between AuTi) between these terminals measure current-voltage characteristic.
Fig. 2 represents the interelectrode current-voltage characteristic of AuTi.Heat treatment time is 3 hours, after this heat treatment,, (a) be result when not handling as the evaporation pre-treatment of electrode material, (b) being result when grinding 10 μ m with diamond chip, (c) is the result when having carried out 30 minutes the processing of oxygen nitrogen plasma irradiation.
Fig. 3 represents that heat treatment time is the equifinality under 6 hours the situation.Untreated situation (a) electric current flows with the nA magnitude, can not be used as electrode.When grinding 10 μ m, streaming current still only flows through the electric current (b) of maximum μ A magnitudes substantially often.When carrying out plasma irradiating, on all electrodes, flow through the electric current (c) of mA magnitude.
As can be known: because the IV characteristic is not a straight line, so the ohm fully of can not saying so, still the easiest streaming current under the situation of having carried out plasma irradiating can confirm effect.
Execution mode 2
Below, according to carrying out the situation that ohm connects, the ultraviolet ray photodetector that uses gallium oxide is described to above-mentioned gallium oxide single crystal.
High-quality piece (bulk: gallium oxide (Ga body) 2O 3) monocrystalline has: band gap is about 4.8eV (about 260nm), can detect the following ultraviolet characteristic of wavelength 280nm selectively.Further because have conductivity, so can be directly at Ga 2O 3Monocrystalline obtains electrode.Further because be oxide, the oxidation so task need not be worried as other above-mentioned semiconductor and deterioration have superior characteristic in durability, aspect stable.Present embodiment is at high-quality piece gallium oxide (Ga 2O 3) present inventor that achieves success of the growing method aspect of monocrystalline etc., conscientiously discussed UV sensor (ultraviolet ray photodetector) and the manufacture method thereof of utilizing this specific character and finished.
About becoming the Ga of material 2O 3Monocrystalline can be manufactured on the superior monocrystalline in crystal quality aspect with the method that present inventors have invented.This method is, with the Ga of purity 4N 2O 3Powder is enclosed in the rubber tube as raw material, is shaped with rubber pattern press (rubber press), and be fuel rod with the sintered body that in electric furnace, obtained in 10 hours, with FZ (FloatingZone) method growing single-crystal at 1500 ℃ of sintering.As the crystal growth condition, the speed of growth is 5~10mm/h, and atmosphere is dry air, and pressure is 1 atmospheric pressure, carries out with this understanding.
Monocrystalline to such making, with the strongest parallel face of (100) face of steel wire sawing and riving property, (CMP:Chemical Mechanical Polishing) carries out mirror ultrafinish to this (100) face with chemical mechanical milling method, is processed into the wafer-like of thickness 0.4~0.5mm.
The Ga of Zhi Zuoing like this 2O 3Monocrystalline, resistivity are 1~5 * 10 -1Ω cm, carrier density is 10 17~10 18Cm -3, have conductivity.It is used as the substrate manufacture UV sensor.
In execution mode 2, the ultraviolet ray photodetector (transducer) of vertical structure is described.Fig. 4 is the side view of expression sensor construction.Transducer shown in Figure 4 (ultraviolet ray photodetector) is provided with electrode 7,5 at the surface and the back side of gallium oxide single crystal substrate 10, makes vertical Schottky diode.Make Schottky electrode on the surface, make Ohmic electrode overleaf.At this moment, under electrode 7 bottoms on surface, form depletion layer 3a, under depletion layer 3a, form conductive layer 3b.
For light being transformed into electron hole pair and detecting, need to make the resistive formation that sandwiches between the electrode.This be because, if conductive formation then electric current flow through simply, then can not isolate photoelectric current.
In order to make this resistive formation, utilize high-resistance film, or, wherein utilize the method for depletion layer, because have amplification and high sensitivity, so more satisfactory to making resistive formation based on the method for the depletion layer of Schottky contacts, pn knot.Further, about the making of depletion layer, be Ga 2O 3The time, because be merely able to obtain the n type, be based on the depletion layer of Schottky contacts so preferably be not based on the pn knot.The result is that the structure of detector becomes Metal-Semiconductor-Metal (MSM: type metal-semiconductor-metal).
In the MSM type, has horizontal type and vertical.When being horizontal type, need utilize formation comb poles such as photoetching.Because this comb poles is difficult to realize large tracts of landization, be merely able under electrode, form depletion layer, so Ga 2O 3Utilization ratio reduce.
Relative therewith, with regard to vertical, as shown in Figure 4, sensor part is following simple structure: be formed with on the surface light receiving surface 7a thin translucent (or transparent) electrode (Schottky electrode: first electrode) 7, only form electrode (Ohmic electrode: second electrode) 5 overleaf.Different with horizontal type, because whole of the depletion layer 3a that can expand in the transparency electrode bottom receives light, so Ga 2O 3The utilization ratio height of monocrystalline, so simple in structure because do not need to make comb poles again, it is easy that technology also becomes, and has aforesaid advantage.
Below, explain use Ga according to each technology 2O 3The manufacture method of the device of the vertical structure of monocrystalline.Fig. 5 represents whole operations of element manufacturing.

At first, clean substrate, heat-treat with fluoric acid, sulfuric acid, acetone, ethanol, pure water.Because the Ga after crystal growth 2O 3Residual defectiveness etc. in the monocrystalline is so heat-treat in order to make its recovery.In oxygen atmosphere 1100 ℃, carry out 3~24 hours heat treatment.If use the time than 3 hours weak points, then the recovery of crystallographic is insufficient, even if the change expense than the processing time of 24 little durations, also because roughly saturated, characteristic no longer changes.Using oxygen is in order to replenish growth Ga 2O 3The oxygen that takes place during monocrystalline is damaged.
(S2: form diaphragm on the surface)
Because plasma irradiating is carried out at the back side, so for fear of the damage on surface and at pre-irradiation coating diaphragm 4.In diaphragm 4, use for example to be used for fixing the fixing cured etc. of analytical sample.Because should fixing cured grade near 100 ℃, melt,, be pressed in Ga so it is coated on the sliding glass 2O 3The surface of substrate makes its cooling back just can prevent that the surface is subjected to ion exposure
(S3: plasma irradiating is carried out at the back side)
In order to obtain ohmic contact overleaf, further, carry out plasma irradiating in order to improve conductivity and to realize low resistanceization.This is in order to generate defective forcibly, to improve conductivity by producing carrier electrons.Utilize the low pressure glow discharge of using residual gas, to sample back side illuminaton plasma.
Ionic current is hundreds of μ A, and the electric current of whole device is 5~10mA.Irradiation time is 20~40min, is preferably 30min.This be because when than 20min in short-term effect lack, even if carry out the long also roughly the same cause of radiation response of time ratio 40min.
(S4: the diaphragm of removing the surface)
After the back side carried out plasma irradiating, remove diaphragm 4.It is cured to add heat fixation once more, takes Ga off 2O 3Substrate is removed fixing curedly, cleans substrate with acetone.
