[12p-S301-1] Distinguishing crystal quality for intrinsic layers of pin diamond diodes fabricated on the p-type substrates with different boron concentration levels
Keywords:Two-photon excitation photoluminescence, Cathodoluminescence, diffusion length
In the electron emission experiments of diamond pin diode with negative electron affinity surfaces exhibited a trend that the electron emission efficiency of diodes fabricated on lightly doped p-type IIb{111} substrates became 2 orders of magnitude or higher than that on heavily doped ones. In order to distinguish the crystal quality between these i-layers, cathodoluminescence and two photon excitation photoluminescence (2PPL) imaging were applied to the i-layers. Results could be explained well with a model taking into account principles of these observation methods and diffusion length of free excitons.
