In this review, defects in β-Ga_2O_3 single crystals were summarized, including dislocations, voids, twin, and small defects. Their effects on device performance were discussed. Dislocations and their surrounding regions can act as paths for the leakage current of SBD in single crystals. However, not all voids lead to leakage current. There's no strong evidence yet to show small defects affect the electrical properties. Doping impurity was definitely irrelated to the leakage current. Finally, the formation mechanism of the defects was analyzed. Most small defects were induced by mechanical damages. The screw dislocation originated from a subgrain boundary. The edge dislocation lying on a plane slightly tilted towards the(102) plane, the(101) being the possible slip plane. The voids defects like hollow nanopipes, PNPs, NSGs and line-shaped grooves may be caused by the condensation of excess oxygen vacancies, penetration of tiny bubbles or local meltback. The nucleation of twin lamellae occurred at the initial stage of "shoulder part" during the crystal growth. These results are helpful in controlling the occurrence of crystal defects and improving the device performance.展开更多

By using a pump source of a 30-ps, 532-nm laser, the gain coefficients of ADP and KDP are 1.22 cm/GW, and 0.91 cm/GW, respectively. While for a 20-ps, 355-nm pump laser, the gain coefficients of these two crystals are similar, which are 1.95 cm/GW for ADP and 1.86 for KDP. The present results indicate that for ultra-violet frequency conversion, the problem of stimulated Raman scattering for ADP crystal will not be more serious than that for KDP crystal. Considering other advantages such the larger nonlinear optical coefficient, higher laser damage threshold, and lower noncritical phase-matching temperature, it can be anticipated that ADP will be a powerful competitor to KDP in large aperture, high energy third-harmonic generation or fourth-harmonic generation applications.展开更多

The measurement results show that both the structures are of good structural quality due to their sharp bound excitonic emissions and absence of the deep level structural defect-related emissions. Furthermore, in contrast to the ZnTe bulk crystal, although excitonic emissions for the ZnTe epilayer are somewhat weak, perhaps due to As atoms diffusing from the Ga As substrate into the ZnTe epilayer and/or because of the strain-induced degradation of the crystalline quality of the ZnTe epilayer, neither the donor–acceptor pair(DAP) nor conduction band-acceptor(e–A) emissions are observed in the ZnTe epilayer. This indicates that by further optimizing the growth process it is possible to obtain a high-crystalline quality ZnTe heteroepitaxial layer that is comparable to the ZnTe bulk crystal.展开更多

The conductivities increase with the deuterium content, and the value of the a-direction is larger than that of the e-direction. Compared with DKDP crystals, DADP crystals have larger conductivities, which is partly due to the existence of A defects. The ac conductivity over the temperature range 25-170℃has shown a knee in the curve ofln(σT) versus T-1. The conductivity activation energy calculated by the slope of the high temperature region decreases with the deuterium content. The previously reported phase transition is not seen.展开更多

It was found that, at low Fe doping concentrations,the introduction of Fe atoms can result in a downward shift of the Fermi level in the GaN buffer layer, since the Fe atoms substitute Ga and introduce an FeGa^3+/2+ acceptor level. This results in a decrease in the yellow luminescence(YL) emission intensity accompanied by the appearance of an infrared(IR) emission, and a decrease in the off-state buffer leakage current(BLC). However, a further increase in the Fe doping concentration will conversely result in the upward shift of the Fermi level due to the incorporation of O donors under the large flow rate of the Fe source. This results in an increased YL emission intensity accompanied by a decrease in the IR emission intensity, and an increase in the BLC. The intrinsic relationship between the PL and BLC characteristics is expected to provide a simple and effective method to understand the variation of the electrical characteristic in the modulation Fe-doped HEMTs by optical measurements.展开更多

By analyzing effective nonlinear optical coefficient(deff) of the cascaded THG process, which was composed by type-II frequency doubling and type-I sum-frequency, the optimum phase matching(PM) direction in BBO crystal was determined to be(θ = 32.1?, φ = 11?). With an optimized 9-mm long sample which was processed along this direction, the highest cascaded THG conversion efficiency reached 42.3%, which is much superior to the similar components reported previously, including ADP, KDP, and Gd_x Y_(1-x) COB crystals.展开更多

The growth habit dependence on the purity of raw material is described and analyzed. The optical properties including transmission spectra and laser-induced damage threshold of these crystals are measured. It is found that the growth method affects the optical properties of crystal more obviously than the raw material with the mass content of main metal ions below 1 ppm. Moreover, the morphology of the core in the observed damage sites indicates that an explosion process probably occurs during laser-induced breakdown.展开更多

As excitation frequency is close to electronic transition frequency, molecular polarizability is not a constant, which has to be taken into account in our work. The experiment and theory agree well with each other and show that SRS gain is not only proportional to Stokes light frequency, but is also inversely proportional to biquadratic excitation frequency.展开更多

Numerical fits to modified double-pole Sellmeier equation are made. Second-harmonic generation, third-harmonic generation phase match- ing (PM) angles, and noncritical PM (NCPM) wavelengths are calculated using the Sellmeier parameters. The deuterated crystals show smaller PM angles than pure crystal. Fourth-harmonic generation process can be real- ized by DADP in smaller deuterium content than deuterated potassium dihydrogen phosphate (DKDP). The measured NCPM wavelengths are consistent with the calculated value. PM characteristics are compared between DADP and DKDP.展开更多

With increasing excitation power from 0.5 pW to 50 mW, the In-rich quasi-quantum dot (QD)-related PL peak disappears at about 3 mW, while temperature behavior of the InGaN matrix-related PL peak energy (linewidth) gradually evolves from a strong "S-shaped" ("W-shaped") temperature dependence into a weak "S-shaped" (an approximately "V-shaped"), until becoming an inverted "V-shaped" (a monotonically increasing) temperature dependence. This indicates that, with increasing excitation power, the carrier localization effect is gradually reduced and the QD-related transition is submerged by the significantly enhanced InGaN matrix-related transition, while the carrier thermalization effect gradually increases to become predominant at high excitation powers.展开更多
