Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to processes for epitaxial growth of Group III/V materials at high rates, such as about 30 ?m/hr or greater, for example, about 40 ?m/hr, about 50 ?m/hr, about 55 ?m/hr, about 60 ?m/hr, about 70 ?m/hr, about 80 ?m/hr, and about 90-120 ?m/hr deposition rates. The Group III/V materials or films may be utilized in solar, semiconductor, or other electronic device applications. The Group III/V materials may be formed or grown on a sacrificial layer disposed on or over the support substrate during a vapor deposition process. Subsequently, the Group III/V materials may be removed from the support substrate during an epitaxial lift off (ELO) process. The Group III/V materials are thin films of epitaxially grown layers containing gallium arsenide, gallium aluminum arsenide, gallium indium arsenide, gallium indium arsenide nitride, gallium aluminum indium phosphide, phosphides thereof, nitrides thereof, derivatives thereof, alloys thereof, or combinations thereof.

Abstract: LEDs and methods of forming LEDs with various structural configurations to mitigate non-radiative recombination at the LED sidewalls are described. The various configurations described include combinations of LED sidewall surface diffusion with pillar structure, modulated doping profiles to form an n-p superlattice along the LED sidewalls, and selectively etched cladding layers to create entry points for shallow doping or regrowth layers.

Abstract: Light emitting diodes are described. In an embodiment, an LED includes a graded p-side spacer layer on a p-type confinement layer, and the graded p-side spacer layer graded from an initial band gap adjacent the p-type confinement layer to a lower band gap. For example, the graded band gap may be achieved by a graded Aluminum concentration.

Abstract: A method of regrowing material includes providing a III-nitride structure including a masking layer and patterning the masking layer to form an etch mask. The method also includes removing, using an in-situ etch, a portion of the III-nitride structure to expose a regrowth region and regrowing a III-nitride material in the regrowth region.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for control of epitaxial growth parameters, for example during manufacture of light emitting diodes (LEDs). Embodiments include PL measurement of a group III-V film following growth while a substrate at an elevated temperature is in a transfer chamber of a multi-chamber cluster tool. In other embodiments, a film thickness measurement, a contactless resistivity measurement, and a particle and/or roughness measure is performed while the substrate is disposed in the transfer chamber. One or more of the measurements performed in the transfer chamber are temperature corrected to room temperature by estimating the elevated temperature based on emission from a GaN base layer disposed below the group III-V film. In other embodiments, temperature correction is based on an absorbance band edge of the GaN base layer determined from collected white light reflectance spectra. Temperature corrected metrology is then used to control growth processes.
