In this paper, β-Ga 2 O 3 films were deposited on c-plane sapphire substrates by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The impact of oxygen flow rate on crystalline quality, surface morphology, optical transmittance, and growth rate were systematically investigated. X-ray diffraction revealed that β-Ga 2 O 3 films preferentially grew along (−201) crystal plane family when grown on sapphire substrates, and the full-width at half maximum indicated that the crystal quality of β-Ga 2 O 3 film was improved by increasing the oxygen flow rate. The oxygen flow rate greatly influenced the surface morphology and growth rate, and the optical band gaps of β-Ga 2 O 3
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
