[13a-S201-6] Impacts of hydrochloric acid and growth temperature on mist chemical vapor deposition growth of Ga2O3
Keywords:gallium oxide, mist CVD, hydrochloric acid
Ga2O3 thin films were grown for 1h on (0001) a-Al2O3 substrate by Mist CVD. Ga(C5H7O2)3 was first dissolved in deionized water to prepare a solution with precursor concentration of 0.05 mol/L, then 36% HCl was added so as to vary the HCl concentration from 0.10 mol/L to 0.47 mol/L. The growth temperatures were varied as 500°C, 550°C, and 600°C. As a result, It was confirmed that the grain size and the film thickness increased with increasing the HCl concentration. The grain size and the film thickness also increased with increasing the growth temperature. Therefore, it is suggested that HCl contributes to the surface migration.
