  • the high defect density results from a large mismatch factor resulting from a difference in lattice constants.
  • This defect density in conjunction with the different thermal expansion coefficients associated with the base substrate material and the growth layer leads to cracks in the growth layer or substrate material.
  • nitride semiconductor substrates The production of nitride semiconductor substrates is complicated by the fact that the GaN dopant partially occupies the Gallium site or the Nitride site. This results in mutual chemical reactions occurring among defects in the material and other impurities. Therefore, obtaining good quality doping in the production of nitride semiconductor substrates is not as easy as in single atom silicon semiconductor materials because it requires precise control of uniform doping and carrier concentrations as well as accurate control of impurities. Consequently, there is a need for a method that overcomes these complications and provides for the production of good quality doped GaN substrates.

Abstract

L'invention se rapporte à un procédé de dopage de substrats en nitrure de gallium (GaN), selon lequel le Gallium subit une transmutation en Germaniun (Ge) du fait de l'application d'un rayonnement neutronique thermique sur le matériau du substrat en GaN ou sur une plaquette. Ce germanium est introduit en tant qu'impureté dans le nitrure de gallium et il joue le rôle de donneur. La concentration du germanium introduit est régulée par le flux neutronique thermique. Lorsque le rayonnement neutronique thermique est appliqué sur une plaquette en GaN, les neutrons rapides sont soumis à une transmutation en même temps que les atomes de gallium et ils sont à l'origine de défauts tels que l'effondrement de la cristallisation. La plaquette en GaN est soumise à un traitement thermique ou elle est traitée à température fixe aux fins de la suppression de ces défauts.
