Semipolar III‐nitrides have attracted increasing attention because of the reduced piezoelectric field in the active layer. In particular, (11‐22) plane is promising due to the small polarization field along the growth axis and the epitaxial matching on m‐plane sapphire. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of growth conditions on the structural and electrical properties of Si‐doped (11‐22) AlGaN. Semipolar AlGaN/AlN layers were grown on m‐plane sapphire by metal‐organic chemical vapor deposition at different temperatures, V/III ratios, and tetraethylesilane flows. Surface morphology, crystalline quality, and electrical properties of the AlGaN layers were investigated with AFM, XRD, and by Hall measurements, respectively.
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.
