  • Publication number: 20140220734
    Abstract: A method for controlling the concentration of a donor in a Ga2O3-based single crystal includes: a step in which a Group IV element is implanted as a donor impurity in a Ga2O3-based single crystal by ion implantation process to form, in the Ga2O3-based single crystal, a donor impurity implantation region that has a higher concentration of the Group IV element than the region in which the Group IV element has not been implanted; and a step in which annealing at 800 C or higher is conducted to activate the Group IV element present in the donor impurity implantation region and thereby form a high-donor-concentration region. Thus, the donor concentration in the Ga2O3-based single crystal is controlled.

  • Publication number: 20140217554
    Abstract: A crystal laminate structure, in which crystals can be epitaxially grown on a ?-Ga2O3-based substrate with high efficiency to produce a high-quality ?-Ga2O3-based crystal film on the substrate; and a method for producing the crystal laminate structure are provided. The crystal laminate structure includes: a ?-Ga2O3-based substrate, of which the major face is a face that is rotated by 50 to 90° inclusive with respect to face; and a ?-Ga2O3-based crystal film which is formed by the epitaxial crystal growth on the major face of the ?-Ga2O3-based substrate.
