摘要
AlN layers grown on Al2O3 substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor desposition were implanted with high doses (3 x 10(16) cm(-2), 250 keV) of Co+, Cr+, or Mn+. Band-edge photoluminescence intensity at similar to6 eV was significantly reduced by the implant process and was not restored by 950degreesC annealing. A peak was observed at 5.89 eV in all the implanted samples. Impurity transitions at 3.0 and 4.3 eV were observed both in implanted and unimplanted AlN. X-ray diffraction showed good crystal quality for the 950degreesC annealed implanted samples, with no ferromagnetic second phases detected. The Cr- and Co-implanted AlN showed hysteresis present at 300 K from magnetometry measurements, while the Mn-implanted samples showed clear loops up to similar to100 K. The coercive field was <250 Oe in all cases. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
