Direct Deposition of CVD Diamond Layers on Top of GaN Membranes

We present technological issues in the deposition of diamond films on gallium nitride (GaN) membranes. Many wrinkles and thicker diamond layers were observed at the membrane center and poor quality diamond outside the membrane area. The deflection of the membranes was analyzed by a bulging method us...

Description
Summary:We present technological issues in the deposition of diamond films on gallium nitride (GaN) membranes. Many wrinkles and thicker diamond layers were observed at the membrane center and poor quality diamond outside the membrane area. The deflection of the membranes was analyzed by a bulging method using white light interferometry. The membrane bending is discussed in the terms of temperature gradient and mismatch of thermal expansion coefficients of materials.
