Abstract:
The electrical and luminescent properties of zinc oxide films grown by CVD on sapphire substrates with different carrier gases are investigated. It is found that hydrogen, oxygen, and ammonia used as a carrier gas in the growth process insignificantly influence the defect structure and impurity content in the crystal. Only hydrogen decreases the density of radiative recombination centers responsible for the green luminescence band typical of zinc oxide.
