摘要:

碳掺杂GaN是一种有前景的亚带隙触发光开关材料。当掺杂到GaN中时,碳引入了深补偿中心,使缺陷介导的外在光电导性成为可能。本文研究了由亚带隙蓝光激发的半绝缘碳掺杂GaN的光学响应性和开关动力学特性。在低辐照度405nm激发下,实现了超过10^7的ON/OFF比。温度依赖的瞬态测量表明,在约300K的临界温度以上,光电流衰减被热淬灭所抑制。这种行为归因于空穴发射辅助的复合。提取的激活能因样品而异;一个普遍观察到的值约为0.83 eV归因于C_N缺陷。值得注意的是,当加热至临界温度以上时,热淬灭可使光电流衰减加速5倍,从而实现显著更快的开关速度。

英文摘要:

Carbon-doped GaN is a promising material for sub-bandgap triggered optical switches. When incorporated in GaN, carbon introduces deep compensating centers that enable defect-mediated extrinsic photoconductivity. Here, we investigate the optical responsivity and switching kinetics of semi-insulating carbon-doped GaN actuated by sub-bandgap blue illumination. A high ON/OFF ratio exceeding $\mathrm{10^7}$ is achieved under low-irradiance 405-nm excitation. Temperature-dependent transient measurements reveal that the photocurrent decay is thermally quenched above a crossover temperature of ~300 K. This behavior is attributed to hole-emission-assisted recombination. The extracted activation energies vary across samples; a commonly observed value of ~0.83 eV is attributed to the $\mathrm{C_N}$ defect. Notably, when heating above the crossover temperature, thermal quenching accelerates the photocurrent decay by up to a factor of five, enabling significantly faster switching.
