摘要
The growth of AlGaN/GaN heterostructure on Si (001) substrates by molecular-beam epitaxy using ammonia as nitrogen precursor is reported. The structural, optical, and electrical properties of such heterostructures are assessed. It is shown that a two-dimensional electron gas is formed at the Al0.23Ga0.77N/GaN interface. This type of heterostructure exhibits a sheet carrier density of 4.2x10(12) cm(-2) with a mobility of 730 cm(2)/V s at room temperature. Preliminary results concerning high-electron-mobility-transistor static characteristics are presented. (C) 2005 American Institute of Physics.
