Epitaxial growth of β-Ga2O3 nanocolumns on MgO substrate
2006
Abstract Crystal structure of Ga 2 O 3 nanocolumns grown on MgO substrate is analyzed by electron microscopy and electron diffraction study. The nanocolumns have β-Ga 2 O 3 structure and the growth direction is [0 0 1] directions. A thin γ-Ga 2 O 3 layer grows on the substrate to relax the lattice misfit between MgO and β-Ga 2 O 3 . The bottom layer of the γ form layer is disordered by {1 1 0} stacking faults. Poly crystalline structure that consists of β-Ga 2 O 3 and γ-Ga 2 O 3 nanocrystals exists between the β form nanocolumns and the γ form layer. The γ form changes gradually to the β form growing up to the nanocolumn. Though various crystal forms appear in a specimen, oxygen cubic close-packed lattice in crystal structures has always the same orientation in all layers including the MgO substrate.
