- Abstract
- Nonpolar a-plane ZnCdO films have been obtained on a-plane GaN using a simple low-cost hydrothermal growth method at the low temperature of 80 degrees C. The morphological, structural, optical, and electrical properties of a-plane ZnCdO films with various Cd contents have been investigated and compared. The photoluminescence peak of the a-plane Zn0.957Cd O-0.043 film, was observed to be centered at 429 nm at 25 degrees C. We demonstrated a heterostructure light-emitting diode (LED) using nonpolar n-type Zn0.957Cd0.043O/p-type GaN films. The rectifying behavior of the current-voltage characteristics was observed with a turn-on voltage of 5 V. The electroluminescence of the LED showed emission peaks including 430 nm, which indicates the near-band-edge emission of a-plane Zn0.957Cd0.043O at 25 degrees C. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V.
