Abstract
This article innovatively uses pulsed metal-organic chemical vapor deposition technology to optimize the quality of β-Ga2O3 thin films on (−201) β-Ga2O3 homo-substrate using indium pulse-assisted technology. The results demonstrate that the pulsed indium-assisted method, when compared with the traditional indium-assisted method, effectively suppresses the desorption of Ga2O, enhances the flatness of the β-Ga2O3 film, and reduces the surface roughness from 34.8 to 0.98 nm. The optimized single crystalline β-Ga2O3 film was grown with pulsed-indium, and the full width at half maximum of x-ray diffraction rocking curve was 30.42 arc sec, smaller than that of the continuous indium β-Ga2O3 (56.1 arc sec). In combination with the x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy O1s split-peak fitting analysis, the relative content of oxygen vacancies in the film was significantly reduced by pulsed indium-assisted method. The Hall mobility of films assisted by pulsed-indium is approximately 14 times higher than that of films assisted by traditional indium. The pulsed indium technology provides an idea for homoepitaxial growth of high-quality β-Ga2O3 films.
