Scattering Analysis of AlGaN/AlN/GaN Heterostructures with Fe-Doped GaN Buffer.

The results of the study of the influence of Fe segregation into the unintentionally doped GaN channel layer in AlGaN/AlN/GaN heterostructures with Fe-doped GaN buffer layer on the electrical properties of two-dimensional electron gas are presented. A set of several samples was grown by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy and characterized by the van der Pauw method. The dependence of concentration and mobility of the two-dimensional electron gas on the channel layer thickness was analyzed theoretically by self-consistent solving of 1D Poisson and Schrödinger equations and scattering rate calculations within the momentum relaxation time approximation.
