Aluminum nitride (AlN) has a maximum direct bandgap width of 6.2eV, which has a higher photoelectric conversion efficiency than an indirect bandgap semiconductor. As an important blue and ultraviolet luminescent material, AlN is used in ULTRAVIOLET/deep ultraviolet light-emitting diodes, ultraviolet laser diodes, and ultraviolet detectors. In addition, AlN can form continuous solid solutions with group III nitride compounds such as GaN and InN, and its three or four element alloys can achieve continuous tunable band gap from visible band to deep ultraviolet band, making it an important high-performance luminescent material.
AlN crystals are ideal substrates for GaN, AlGaN and AlN epitaxial materials. Compared with sapphire or SiC substrates, AlN has higher thermal matching and chemical compatibility with GaN and lower stress between substrate and epitaxial layer. Therefore, AlN crystal as GaN epitaxial substrate can greatly reduce the defect density in the device, improve the performance of the device, and has a good application prospect in the preparation of high temperature, high frequency, high power electronic devices.
In addition, the substrate of AlGaN epitaxial material with AlN crystal as high Al component can effectively reduce the defect density in the nitride epitaxial layer, and greatly improve the performance and service life of nitride semiconductor devices.
