Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have investigated the insertion of different lattice-relaxation layers between the AlGaN MQW layer and the AlN layer on sapphire. Lattice-relaxation layers using an AlN interlayer with a growth temperature of 1450 oC on two high-Al-mole-fraction AlGaN layers (structure (b)) presents the strongest emission intensity and also the highest crystal quality of AlGaN MQWs. Using high temperature AlN films as the lattice-relaxation layer improved crystal quality and emission intensity in AlGaN MQWs. The detailed mechanism will be discussed in a future study. A prototype ultraviolet-light-source tube was fabricated with an AlGaN film used as a target for electron-beam (EB) excitation. The deep-UV light output power and conversion efficiency of the AlGaN MQW target for EB pumping voltage of 10kV were investigated. The deep-UV light output power was 16 mW at a wavelength of 256 nm, when the EB input power of 2W, and that the conversion efficiency was 1% at the EB input power of 1W.
