摘要
AlN crystalline thick films are obtained by LPCVD using trimethylaluminium and ammonia. A model is proposed to analyse the growth morphologies of these films. The equilibrium morphology of AlN, in a gas-solid system, is derived from the periodic bond chain analysis of the crystal structure and the application of the Bravais-Donnay-Harker law to the crystal lattice and space group. A morphological diagram, showing the habits produced by changing the relative rates of growth of the different crystal forms, has been constructed and used to describe the morphologies obtained in this work and a number of previous references. The influence of the reactant gas flows, the temperature, the total pressure and impurities (mainly hydrogen) on the morphology is analysed.
