Some fundamentals of the vapor and solution growth of ZnSe and ZnO
1999
Abstract Some fundamentals of ZnSe and ZnO vapor and solution growth are investigated. Residual water present in gases or gaseous mixtures such as H 2 , Ar or H 2 +H 2 O is shown to act as a sublimation activator in the vapor-phase transport of both compounds. The processes involved in the growth by chemically activated sublimation with such gases and gas mixtures have been studied by close-spaced vapor transport (CSVT). The ZnSe growth rate is found to be constant, while in the ZnO case a high initial growth rate is followed by slower growth subsequently. Using a theoretical model, the thermodynamic constants of the transport – energies of activation, sublimation and condensation and entha…
Study of the chemically activated sublimation of ZnSe
1999
Abstract The reactions and processes involved in the growth of ZnSe by chemically activated sublimation in a H 2 atmosphere are studied. The rate of transport as a function of source and substrate temperatures and the difference between them are determined from close spacing vapour transport experiments. According to this process, ZnSe layers are deposited on sapphire substrates by short distance chemically assisted sublimation. The experimental results are analysed and the thermodynamic constants of the transport are determined using a theoretical model for kinetically controlled processes, assuming water to act as sublimation catalyst. A preliminary optical and structural characterisation…
