The optical and electrical properties of GaN(0001) surfaces treated by a novel chemical polishing method are described. Scanning microscopic photoluminescence images reveal that the polished GaN surface shows improved luminescence properties compared to the untreated surface. Current-voltage measurements of Schottky barriers formed using the GaN substrates show that the polished GaN surface has a lower reverse leakage current, and that the barrier height and ideality factor are improved after the polishing treatment.
描述了采用新型化学抛光方法处理的GaN(0001)表面的光学和电学性质。扫描显微镜光致发光图像显示,与未处理的表面相比,抛光后的GaN表面发光性能得到改善。对使用GaN衬底形成的肖特基势垒进行的电流-电压测量表明,抛光后的GaN表面具有较低的反向漏电流,并且在抛光处理后势垒高度和理想因子得到改善。
