Description
技术领域
本发明属于半导体材料领域,具体涉及一种InAs基InGaAs/InAsSb超晶格材料及其生长方法和应用。
背景技术
锑化物II类超晶格由于拥有生长技术成熟、量子效率高以及能带调控灵活等优点,成为红外光电器件的优选材料之一。现有技术中常采用InAs/InAsSb与InAs/GaSb等其他锑化物II类超晶格材料。其中InAs/InAsSb材料主要用于中波红外(3-5μm)光电器件,一般8nm以上的超晶格周期厚度才能够达到5μm的截止波长,而根据II类超晶格光吸收特点,超晶格周期厚度越长会造成量子效率衰减,因此InAs/InAsSb材料体系一直存在量子效率较低的缺陷。另一类InAs/GaSb材料体系截止波长可以覆盖中波至长波红外波段(3-12μm),但是超晶格中包含的GaSb材料存在本征P型缺陷,限制了该材料体系的载流子迁移率。另外由于InAs/GaSb超晶格两种组成材料均是二元化合物,调节截止波长只有改变超晶格层厚这一种手段,这在器件设计与材料生长方面造成了很大限制。
发明内容
本发明旨在解决上述问题,提供了一种InAs基InGaAs/InAsSb超晶格材料及其生长方法和应用,该大应变超晶格材料晶体质量优异,缺陷密度低,且不含有GaSb材料,可获得较高载流子迁移率与光电性能。
按照本发明的技术方案,所述InAs基InGaAs/InAsSb超晶格材料,包括依次堆叠的若干InxGa1-xAs/InAsySb1-y超晶格原胞,其中,0<x<1,0<y<1;所述InxGa1-xAs/InAsySb1-y超晶格原胞包括一层InxGa1-xAs材料和一层InAsySb1-y材料。
优选的,0.6≤x≤0.9,0.6≤y≤0.9;进一步优选为:0.7≤x≤0.8,0.7≤y≤0.8。
本发明InAs基InGaAs/InAsSb超晶格材料中电子被限制在InxGa1-xAs层,空穴被限制在InAsySb1-y层,通过改变超晶格原胞内各层厚度与组分,可以独立调制电子与空穴能级,实现3-7μm范围内的红外光吸收截止波长调节,覆盖全部中红外波段,可用于中波红外光电器件。
对于相同截止波长的InxGa1-xAs/InAsySb1-y超晶格材料,减小组分x、y能够获得更高的光吸收量子效率,但会提高单层材料的应变。这导致材料生长的难度大幅增加,对于超晶格材料中的InAsySb1-y层,其在InAs衬底上室温下理论临界厚度Hc随组分y的关系如图1所示,随衬底温度升高,临界厚度数值还会相应减小。当单层外延厚度超过临界厚度后,高应变会使InSb组分析出形成缺陷,缺陷在原子力显微镜(AFM)下形貌如图2所示,这类缺陷会对材料质量产生致命影响,目前抑制这一缺陷的有效办法是降低外延生长的温度。而对于含有GaAs组分的InxGa1-xAs层,降低生长温度会使材料结晶度迅速下降,造成材料能带结构的破坏与载流子迁移率的衰减,从而使材料光电性能退化。
为获得高质量InAs基InxGa1-xAs/InAsySb1-y超晶格材料,本发明的第二方面提供了其生长方法,包括以下步骤,
S1、标定InAs衬底脱氧及InAs缓冲层生长条件;
S2、根据步骤A标定的InAs衬底脱氧温度Td,初步确定超晶格材料的生长温度Ts;
S3、选定单层InxGa1-xAs材料的厚度m,该厚度可在0nm<m<10nm范围内任意取值,再根据m数值确定单层InAsySb1-y的厚度n;
S4、获得InxGa1-xAs材料在InAs衬底上的生长条件;
S5、使用步骤S1-S4所得超晶格生长参数,以及不同的Sb束流生长InxGa1-xAs/InAsySb1-y超晶格材料,根据超晶格材料相对InAs衬底应变量选择Sb束流最佳值;
S6、使用步骤S1-S5所得超晶格生长参数生长InxGa1-xAs/InAsySb1-y超晶格材料,根据超晶格材料表面缺陷密度,调整超晶格材料的生长温度,获取超晶格材料最佳生长温度;
S7、使用超晶格材料最佳生长温度,以及步骤S1-S5所得其他超晶格生长参数,生长所述InAs基InGaAs/InAsSb超晶格材料;
所述步骤S3、S4和步骤S1-S2的顺序不限。
进一步的,所述步骤S1的具体操作如下:
S11、将除气后的InAs衬底送入生长室,在As束流保护下升温至脱氧,将脱氧温度Td记为后续外延生长的基准温度;
S12、调整In炉温度获得InAs生长速率rInAs对应束流FIn,调整As炉状态以获得InAs缓冲层生长所需As束流FAs;
进一步的,所述步骤S11中,将InAs衬底在进样室及缓冲室中进行除气。
进一步的,所述步骤S11中,以(Td-30℃)±10℃作为生长InAs缓冲层的衬底温度。
进一步的,根据InAs衬底脱氧温度Td,初步确定超晶格材料的生长温度:
进一步的,所述步骤S3中,单层InxGa1-xAs材料的厚度m和单层InAsySb1-y的厚度n满足以下条件:
其中aInGaAs、aInAsSb、aInAs分别代表InxGa1-xAs、InAsySb1-y、InAs材料的晶格常数。
优选的,InxGa1-xAs材料的厚度m的取值范围为1-9nm,进一步优选为2-5nm或2.25-4.3nm。
进一步的,所述步骤S4中,调整Ga炉温度获得GaAs在InAs衬底上生长速率rGaAs对应束流FGa;调整As炉状态以获得InxGa1-xAs层在超晶格生长温度Ts下生长所需As束流。
进一步的,所述步骤S5中,根据所生长超晶格材料的XRD图谱分析得到InAsySb1-y生长用Sb束流与超晶格材料相对InAs衬底应变量e之间的对应关系;选取超晶格材料相对InAs衬底零应变对应的InAsySb1-y生长用Sb束流作为Sb束流最佳值。
进一步的,所述步骤S6中,获取超晶格材料最佳生长温度的方法如下:
如果超晶格材料表面缺陷密度不高于500cm-2,增加生长温度10℃,重复生长InxGa1-xAs/InAsySb1-y超晶格材料,直到表面缺陷密度超过500cm-2,此时对应的超晶格生长温度为Tc1,选取Tc1-10℃作为超晶格材料最佳生长温度;
所得超晶格材料表面缺陷密度大于500cm-2,减小生长温度10℃,重复生长InxGa1- xAs/InAsySb1-y超晶格材料,直到表面缺陷密度小于500cm-2,此时对应的超晶格生长温度为Tc2,则选取Tc2作为超晶格材料最佳生长温度。
本发明的第三方面提供了一种中波红外光电器件,包括上述InAs基InGaAs/InAsSb超晶格材料。
采用该方法得到的参数生长InxGa1-xAs/InAsySb1-y超晶格材料,材料晶体质量优异,缺陷密度低,可获得较高光电性能。
本发明的技术方案相比现有技术具有以下优点:本发明超晶格材料可用于中波红外光电器件,通过改变超晶格原胞内各层厚度与组分可使其红外吸收截止波长在3-7μm范围内调节;本发明生长方法得到的参数生长InxGa1-xAs/InAsySb1-y超晶格材料,材料晶体质量优异,缺陷密度低,可获得较高光电性能。
