Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of ultra-wide band gap semiconductor single crystal growth, in particular to Ni-Li + A method for preparing hexagonal boron nitride monocrystal by using cosolvent.
Background
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is a novel wide bandgap semiconductor, is similar to a graphene structure, has a bandgap reaching more than 6.0eV, and has a large bandgap, high mechanical strength, good thermal stability, high thermal conductivity, low dielectric constant, high breakdown field strength and other excellent physical and chemical properties. The method is widely applied to the fields of deep ultraviolet light emitting devices, laser devices and deep ultraviolet detectors, and can be used for preparing high-temperature and high-frequency electronic power devices. The light-emitting material can also form a full-band light-emitting material with a mature wide-band semiconductor, and is a wide-band semiconductor material with higher exploration value.
At present, a method for preparing hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), such as a chemical vapor deposition method or a physical vapor deposition method, has a plurality of influencing factors (such as a substrate, temperature, pressure, atmosphere and the like), a growth mechanism is not clear, and h-BN with larger size is difficult to grow. The fluxing agent method is that after solute is completely dissolved in metal flux at high temperature, the temperature is reduced at extremely low speedThe method has the advantages that the size of the method is controlled by the cooling rate, and the method takes a long time and is not thick. In 2007 Japanese National Institute for Materials Science, high purity cubic boron nitride (cBN) and hBN single crystals were synthesized as a Ba-BN solution at high temperature and high pressure for 20 to 40 hours. Because the high-temperature high-pressure method has harsh growth conditions and the growth size is difficult to further expand, the method is converted into a high-temperature normal-pressure method for preparing the h-BN monocrystal. Tetsuya Yamada et al, 2019, melted Li in BN crucible at normal pressure by controlling the flux and heating temperature 2 CO 3 The grown h-BN crystal has a novel polyhedral structure, the size is more than 3 microns, and a research thought is provided for subsequent experimental exploration. The existing metal fluxing agent system for growing h-BN under normal pressure comprises the following components: nickel tungsten, cobalt chromium, nickel chromium, copper chromium, iron chromium, pure iron, stainless steel alloys, etc., with growth dimensions on the order of microns to centimeters and thicknesses on the order of microns only.
In general, the h-BN single crystal material is still in the basic research stage of material preparation, and application research is just started, and mainly focused on the research of single crystal films. The preparation of h-BN single crystal materials with large size and high quality becomes a great difficulty.

And (5) taking out the product from the corundum crucible after naturally cooling to room temperature and deflating.
Comparative example 1
The only difference from example 1 is that: adding a mixture of BN and carbon powder into a corundum crucible, wherein the carbon powder accounts for 1.8% of the mass of the mixture.
Comparative example 2
The only difference from example 1 is that: adding a mixture of fluxing agent Ni, BN and carbon powder into a corundum crucible, wherein the mass ratio of the cosolvent Ni to the source material BN is 20:1, and the carbon powder accounts for 1.8% of the mass of the mixture.
Comparative example 3
The only difference from example 1 is that: adding fluxing agent Li into corundum crucible 2 O, BN and carbon powder, fluxing agent Li 2 The mass ratio of O to the source material BN is 20:1, and the carbon powder accounts for 1.8% of the mass of the mixture.
FIG. 1 is a drawing of example 1Ni-Li 2 An optical microscopic image of an O flux grown h-BN single crystal, a size exceeding 200 μm, FIG. 2 is a view of example 1Ni-Li 2 Raman spectrum of the grown h-BN single crystal with O fluxing agent at Raman peak position 1366cm -1 Is provided with a half width of 7.78 and 7.78cm -1 Is not shown in the figure). FIG. 3 is example 1Ni-Li 2 h-BN monocrystal adhered to O system surface.
The surface of the product of comparative example 1 was observed, and as shown in FIG. 4, the optical microscope showed no significant change in BN sheet and no formation of h-BN crystals. Comparative example 2 the sample surface, as shown in fig. 5 by optical microscopy, showed no h-BN crystals were generated on the metal surface. Comparative example 3 As shown in FIG. 6, the crucible had partially undissolved BN therein, and no formation of h-BN crystals was observed, and as a result, ni-Li 2 The O system can grow h-BN monocrystal with large size and high quality.
