摘要
Lateral epitaxial overgrowth (LEO) of ZnO has been demonstrated in water at 90 degrees C. The process starts with hydrothermal epitaxial growth of ZnO(0001) on MgAl2O4(111), followed by channel stamping of photoresist to define "growth windows". LEO films grow in zinc-precursor solutions at pH 10.9; sodium citrate addition controls out-of-plane growth. Transmission electron microscopy indicates threading dislocation reductions from similar to 2 x 10(10) to < 2 x 10(8) cm(-2) from the window to the wing regions. Microphotolurninescence and Hall-effect measurements indicate improved material quality. Wing tilt was observed. Double LEO demonstrates the possibility of complete dislocation reduction.
