    Cobalt as a promising dopant for producing semi-insulating β -Ga2O3crystals: Charge state transition levels from experiment and theory
    (Melville, NY : AIP Publ., 2022) Seyidov, Palvan; Varley, Joel B.; Galazka, Zbigniew; Chou, Ta-Shun; Popp, Andreas; Fiedler, Andreas; Irmscher, Klaus
    Optical absorption and photoconductivity measurements of Co-doped β-Ga2O3 crystals reveal the photon energies of optically excited charge transfer between the Co related deep levels and the conduction or valence band. The corresponding photoionization cross sections are fitted by a phenomenological model considering electron-phonon coupling. The obtained fitting parameters: thermal ionization (zero-phonon transition) energy, Franck-Condon shift, and effective phonon energy are compared with corresponding values predicted by first principle calculations based on density functional theory. A (+/0) donor level ∼0.85 eV above the valence band maximum and a (0/-) acceptor level ∼2.1 eV below the conduction band minimum are consistently derived. Temperature-dependent electrical resistivity measurement at elevated temperatures (up to 1000 K) yields a thermal activation energy of 2.1 ± 0.1 eV, consistent with the position of the Co acceptor level. Furthermore, the results show that Co doping is promising for producing semi-insulating β-Ga2O3 crystals.

    Temperature dependence of the Seebeck coefficient of epitaxial β -Ga2O3 thin films
    (Melville, NY : AIP Publ., 2019) Boy, Johannes; Handwerg, Martin; Ahrling, Robin; Mitdank, Rüdiger; Wagner, Günter; Galazka, Zbigniew; Fischer, Saskia F.
    The temperature dependence of the Seebeck coefficient of homoepitaxial metal organic vapor phase grown, silicon doped β-Ga 2 O 3 thin films was measured relative to aluminum. For room temperature, we found the relative Seebeck coefficient of Sβ-Ga2O3-Al=(-300±20) μV/K. At high bath temperatures T > 240 K, the scattering is determined by electron-phonon-interaction. At lower bath temperatures between T = 100 K and T = 300 K, an increase in the magnitude of the Seebeck coefficient is explained in the frame of Stratton's formula. The influence of different scattering mechanisms on the magnitude of the Seebeck coefficient is discussed and compared with Hall measurement results. © 2019 Author(s).
