Microstructure and Interfaces of Ultra-Thin Epitaxial AlN Films Grown by Plasma-Enhanced Atomic Layer Deposition at Relatively Low Temperatures
We demonstrate the growth of ultra-thin AlN films on Si (111) and on a GaN/sapphire (0001) substrate using atomic layer epitaxy in the temperature range of 360 to 420 °C. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction were used to characterize the interfaces, fine scale microstructure, and t...
