AlGaN nanorods have attracted increasing amounts of attention for use in ultraviolet (UV) optoelectronic devices. Here, self-assembled AlGaN nanorods with embedding quantum disks (Qdisks) were grown on Si(111) using plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy (PA-MBE). The morphology and quantum construction of the nanorods were investigated and well-oriented and nearly defect-free nanorods were shown to have a high density of about 2 × 10 cm. By controlling the substrate temperature and Al/Ga ratio, the emission wavelengths of the nanorods could be adjusted from 276 nm to 330 nm. By optimizing the structures and growth parameters of the Qdisks, a high internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of the AlGaN Qdisk nanorods of up to 77% was obtained at 305 nm, which also exhibited a shift in the small emission wavelength peak with respect to the increasing temperatures during the PL measurements.
氮化铝镓纳米棒在紫外光电子器件中的应用已引起越来越多的关注。在此,利用等离子体辅助分子束外延(PA-MBE)在Si(111)上生长了嵌入量子盘(Q盘)的自组装氮化铝镓纳米棒。研究了纳米棒的形貌和量子结构,结果表明取向良好且几乎无缺陷的纳米棒具有约2×10¹² cm⁻²的高密度。通过控制衬底温度和铝/镓比,纳米棒的发射波长可在276 nm至330 nm之间调节。通过优化Q盘的结构和生长参数,在305 nm处获得了高达77%的氮化铝镓Q盘纳米棒的高内量子效率(IQE),在光致发光(PL)测量过程中,其发射波长小峰也随温度升高而发生偏移。
