Interface engineering of high-Mg-content MgZnO/BeO/Si for p-n heterojunction solar-blind ultraviolet photodetectors
High-quality wurtzite MgZnO film was deposited on Si(111) substrate via a delicate interface engineering using BeO, by which solar-blind ultraviolet photodetectors were fabricated on the n-MgZnO(0001)/p-Si(111) heterojunction. A thin Be layer was deposited on clean Si surface with subsequent in situ...

Zusammenfassung: | High-quality wurtzite MgZnO film was deposited on Si(111) substrate via a delicate interface engineering using BeO, by which solar-blind ultraviolet photodetectors were fabricated on the n-MgZnO(0001)/p-Si(111) heterojunction. A thin Be layer was deposited on clean Si surface with subsequent
in situ
oxidation processes, which provides an excellent template for high-Mg-content MgZnO growth. The interface controlling significantly improves the device performance, as the photodetector demonstrates a sharp cutoff wavelength at 280 nm, consistent with the optical band gap of the epilayer. Our experimental results promise potential applications of this technique in integration of solar-blind ultraviolet optoelectronic device with Si microelectronic technologies. |
