Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we have examined the various kind of substrates for the single crystal growth of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) by employing the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method.Among various kind of substrates, h-BN substrates successfully gave high quality h-BN thin films, which showed similar or higher crystallinity than the one for the crystals grown by high temperature-high pressure (HT-HP) technique. These homoepitaxial films were examined by confocal Raman depth mapping and UV-photoluminescence microscope. The depth profiles of the width of the Raman mode showed the significant decrease and the exciton luminescence near the band edge showed a single narrower band. These results imply the decrease of defects of the epitaxial h-BN layers.
