Abstract
In this work we presents effect of ultra high pressure annealing on Si-implanted GaN n-type and p-type epilayers on ammonothermally grown bulk GaN substrates. Samples were blanked implanted with different Si ion fluences from 3x1014 cm-2 to 3x1015 cm-2 and then annealed using UHPA at temperature of 1200, 1300 and 1400°C for 5 minutes at 1 GPa. Ion distribution before and after annealing where investigated using SIMS method showing no Si diffusion in p-type GaN along with Mg diffusion from epilayer and very low Si diffusion in n-type GaN epilayers. X-ray diffraction studies shows that not all defects were recovered after annealing, especially for high ion fluences. Annealing at 1400°C causes changes in implanted GaN morphology. The surface roughness where increased after annealing especially for samples implanted with 3x1015 cm-2Si dose. Our results shows that more work is needed to optimize UHPA parameters for defect recovery in Si-implanted GaN especially for high ion fluences.
