| Research Abstract |
Recent developments in ZnSe-based optical devices greatly owe to p-type ZnSe prepared with a nitrogen RF plasma source. In the plasma process, doping of nitrogen is achieved by an active nitrogen. In this study, we proposed the use of dissociative adsorption of N_2 on transition metals (catalytic reaction) as a new nitrogen doping technique during MBE growth of ZnSe instead of using RF plasma.
First, we investigated the effect of high-temperature tungsten (W) filament on nitrogen doping of ZnSe. In the PL spectra of N-doped ZnSe films with heating the W filament above 1300ﾟC,DAP emission was clearly observed, showing that nitrogen was effectively incorporated into ZnSe by the effect of the heated tungsten. However, the N-doped ZnSe films exhibited high resistivity.
Furthemore, we investigated the effect of heated Fe and it was found that nitrogen was effectively incorporated into ZnSe by the effect of the heated Fe at 300ﾟC.However, the N-doped ZnSe films exhibited high resistivity.
