Effects of crystallinity and point defects on optoelectronic applications of β-Ga₂O₃ epilayers.

This study evaluates the effect of crystallinity and point defects on time-dependent photoresponsivity and the cathodoluminescence (CL) properties of β-Ga₂O₃ epilayers. A synchrotron high-resolution X-ray technique was used to understand the crystalline structure of samples. Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy was used to determine the net chemical composition of the samples to examine the type and ratio of their possible point defects.

P-side up AlGaInP-based light emitting diodes with dot-patterned GaAs contact layers.

High-brightness p-side up AlGaInP-based red light emitting diodes (LEDs) with dot-patterned GaAs contact layer and surface rough structure are presented in this article. Initial LED structure of p-GaP/AlGaInP/GaAs is epitaxially grown using metal organic chemical vapor deposition technique. Using novel twice transferring process, the p-GaP layer is remained at the top side as both the current spreading and-window layer.
