Abstract
Monoclinic gallium oxide (Ga2O3) has been grown on (0001) sapphire (Al2O3) substrate by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy (PA-MBE). The epitaxial relationship has been confirmed to be [010]( ) β-Ga2O3||[ ](0001)Al2O3 via in-situ reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) monitoring and ex-situ X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement. Crystalline quality is improved and surface becomes flatter with increasing growth temperature, with a best full width at half maximum (FWHM) of XRD ω-rocking curve of ( ) plane and root mean square (RMS) roughness of 0.68° and 2.04 nm for the sample grown at 730 °C, respectively. Room temperature cathodoluminescence measurement shows an emission at ~417 nm, which is most likely originated from recombination of donor–acceptor pair (DAP).
